Chandogya Upanishad 6.8.7 (Sama Veda)

स य एषोऽणिमा ऐतदात्म्यमिदं सर्वं तत्सत्यं स आत्मा तत्त्वमसि श्वेतकेतो॥

sa ya eṣo’ṇimā aitad-ātmyam idaṁ sarvaṁ tat satyaṁ sa ātmā tat tvam asi śvetaketo

Meaning

That which is this subtle essence — all this has its self in it. That alone is the Real. That is the Self. That thou art, O Shvetaketu. The supreme Mahavakya of the Sama Veda — Uddalaka Aruni’s instruction to his son Shvetaketu, equating the individual atman with the cosmic Brahman.
