Prashna Upanishad: Verse 1.15
तद्ये ह वै तत्प्रजापतिव्रतं चरन्ति ते मिथुनमुत्पादयन्ते। तेषामेवैष ब्रह्मलोको येषां तपो ब्रह्मचर्यं येषु सत्यं प्रतिष्ठितम्॥१५॥
तत् ये ह वै तत्-प्रजापति-व्रतम् चरन्ति ते मिथुनम् उत्-पादयन्ते । तेषाम् एव एषः ब्रह्म-लोकः येषाम् तपः ब्रह्मचर्यम् येषु सत्यम् प्रति-ष्ठितम् ॥१५॥
tad ye ha vai tat-prajāpati-vrataṃ caranti te mithunam utpādayanti | teṣām evaiṣa brahmaloko yeṣāṃ tapo brahmacaryaṃ yeṣu satyaṃ pratiṣṭhitam ||15||
ये तु तत्प्रजापतिव्रतं चरन्ति ते मिथुनं जनयन्ति। तेषामेव ब्रह्मलोकः—येषां तपो ब्रह्मचर्यं च, येषु सत्यं प्रतिष्ठितम्।
Now, those who practice that vow of Prajāpati, they produce the pair (offspring/creative duality). For them alone is this Brahma-world—(for those) in whom austerity and brahmacarya (continence/discipline) are present, and in whom truth is established.
