Chandogya Upanishad 8.12.5

'He who knows, let me think this, he is the Self, the mind is his divine eye. He, the Self, seeing these pleasures (which to others are hidden like a buried treasure of gold) through his divine eye, i. e. the mind, rejoices. 'The Devas who are in the world of Brahman meditate on that Self (as taught by Pragâpati to Indra, and by Indra to the Devas). Therefore all worlds belong to them, and all desires. He who knows that Self and understands it, obtains all worlds and all desires.' Thus said Pragâpati, yea, thus said Pragâpati.

In plain words: The Self is the one who thinks, and the mind is its divine eye, through which it sees and enjoys hidden joys. The gods meditate on this Self, so they have all worlds and desires, and anyone who knows and understands this Self gains the same.
