Prashna Upanishad

3.9

Translation by Swami Sivananda
9 Fire, verily, is udana; therefore he whose fire has been extinguished goes out for rebirth, with the senses absorbed in the mind. 

Translation by Max Mueller
9. Light is the Udâna (out-breathing), and therefore he whose light has gone out comes to a new birth with his senses absorbed in the mind.
