Hearing is a fourth part of Brahman: by the light of the quarters of space it shines and warms. With fame, renown and sacred lustre shines and warms he who knows thus. Who knows thus.

The fourth foot: śrotram, hearing, and its luminaries are the diśaḥ, the quarters of space: hearing shines by the expanse (hearing is the most spatial of the senses: it embraces every direction at once!): to listen is to be open on all sides.
The four feet are gathered: word-fire, life-wind, gaze-sun, hearing-expanse: Brahman-as-mind stands in a man on four feet of light, and the knower shines and warms with all four. The doubled ya evaṁ veda closes the khaṇḍa: a four-footed veneration is stable — it will keep its feet even in fame.
