When the samāna is satisfied, the mind is satisfied; when the mind is satisfied, Parjanya is satisfied; when Parjanya is satisfied, the lightning is satisfied; when the lightning is satisfied, everything is satisfied that stands under the lightning and Parjanya. And after their satisfaction he himself is satisfied — with offspring, cattle, food, vigour and the lustre of Brahman.

The fourth chain: samāna → mind → the thundering sky → lightning. The mind is akin to a thunderstorm: it gathers like a cloud and decides like lightning, in an instantaneous flash; the Upaniṣads more than once compare a flash of insight to summer lightning (Kena 4.4). A balanced samāna makes a clear mind — everyone who has fasted and everyone who has overeaten knows this connection by experience.
And again a particular chain empties into the general blessing: offspring, cattle, food, vigour, brahma-varcas. The five formulas of satisfaction all end alike, for all five chains have one source and one estuary — a life given away and returned with increase.
