The first of the phala-śrutis — the formulas of fruit with which the Chāndogya seals every contemplation: āpayitā ha vai kāmānāṁ bhavati — "he becomes a fulfiller of desires" — ya etad evaṁ vidvān — "who, knowing this thus" — venerates the syllable. The condition "knowing thus" is essential: not a mechanical repetition but a contemplation with knowledge of the inner sense (the pair joined in the syllable).
The promise of "the fulfilment of desires" is no bait for the covetous: the Upaniṣad is honest about the mechanics: he who has joined life and word within himself becomes whole, and a whole will comes to pass — nothing within tears it apart. Desires are fulfilled not by the magic of a syllable but by the healing of the desirer; Oṁ makes a man one whose word and life are a single thing, and to such a man the world too answers with consent (the Muṇḍaka: "he whose being is purified illumines whatever world he will, and gains it").
