2015-43 Vedic Wisdom - Brihadaranyaka Upanishad:
What the thunder says -- Da Da Da or The Three Great Disciplines
Then the men said to him: "Please instruct us, Sir"
To them he uttered the same syllable da and asked: "Have you understood?"
They replied: "We have. You said to us, ‘Give (datta).’
He said: ‘Yes, you have understood.
Then the demons said to him: "Please instruct us, Sir."
That very thing is repeated even today by the heavenly voice, in the form of thunder, as "Da," "Da," "Da," which means: "Control yourselves," "Give," and "Have compassion."
