You eat food and see what is dear; he eats food and sees what is dear, and the lustre of Brahman is in the family of one who venerates this Vaiśvānara-ātman thus. But these are only the feet of the ātman," he said. "Your feet would have withered had you not come to me."

The earth is the pādau, the two feet of the Vaiśvānara: the world's lowest tier is that on which the All-human One stands. The Ṛg-veda said it before anyone: "All beings are a quarter of him" — pādo 'sya viśvā bhūtāni (RV 10.90.3): the whole earth with everything living upon it is the Puruṣa's foot. Uddālaka, venerating the earth, was holding on to that foot without raising his eyes.
Six answers have been gathered, six members named: head-heaven, eye-sun, breath-wind, trunk-space, vessel-waters, feet-earth. Each guest venerated his own member and lived by its fruits; each was threatened by that member's failure; all were saved by the road to a knower. The main thing remains — to gather the members into a Body and show the guests the One whom they venerated piecemeal. This the next verse will do, the summit of the Vaiśvānara-vidyā.
