तमग्निरभ्युवाद सत्यकाम ३ इति भगव इति उससे अग्निने सत्यकाम पसा कंडा। प्रकाश, जल और ताप एक ही प्राकृतिक चक्र के रूप हैं; कोई भी अपने आप अलग सृष्टि नहीं है। यह पंक्ति उन रूपों को एक व्यवस्था के अंग की तरह पढ़ती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
