Ganaka Vaideha, descending from his throne, said: `I bow to you, O Yagnavalkya, teach me.' Yagnavalkya said: `Your Majesty, as a man who wishes to make a long journey, would furnish himself with a chariot or a ship, thus is your mind well furnished by these Upanishads. You are honourable, and wealthy, you have learnt the Vedas and been told the Upanishads. Whither then will you go when departing hence?' Ganaka Vaideha said: `Sir, I do not know whither I shall go.' Yagnavalkya said: `Then I shall tell you this, whither you will go.' Ganaka Vaideha said: `Tell it, Sir.'
