O perpetuator of Bhrigu's race, know that all the Veda beginning with the original syllable) One are at one with me. Know, O son of Bhrigu's race, that I am the sacrificial stake; I am the Soma (drunk in sacrifices); I am the Charu (cooked in sacrifices for being offered to the deities); I am the Homa (that is performed); I am those deeds which sacrificers perform for pleasing the celestials; I am even the pourer of the sacrificial libation; and I am the Havi or libation that is poured. I am the Adhvaryu. I am the Kalpaka; and I am the highly sanctified sacrificial Havi. It is me whom the Udgatri, in the great sacrifice, hymns by the sound of his songs. In all rites of expiation, O Brahmana, the utters of auspicious Mantras and bencdictions fraught with peace sing my praises who am the artificer, o foremost of twice-born ones, of the universe.
