'The altar (fire), O Gautama, is that world (heaven) ; the fuel is the sun itself, the smoke his rays, the light the day, the coals the quarters, the sparks the intermediate quarters. On that altar the Devas offer the sraddhâ libation (consisting of water ). From that oblation rises Soma, the king (the moon).

(प्रवाहण ने कहा,) 'गौतम, वह लोक ही अग्नि है। उसका समिधा आदित्य है, धूम किरणें हैं, अर्चिः दिन है, अंगारे दिशाएँ हैं, स्फुलिंग अवान्तर दिशाएँ हैं। उस अग्नि में देव श्रद्धा की आहुति देते हैं। उस आहुति से सोम राजा उत्पन्न होता है।'
