Garuḍa Purāṇa 216 / Brahmā said: / I shall explain the vaiśvadeva offering, the supreme characteristic of oblations: / Having kindled the fire and sprinkled it [with water]: “Oṃ, I send the flesh-consuming fire far away; let him go to the realm of Yama carrying away our impurities. / May this other knower of beings right here bear the oblation to the gods, knowing [his duty]. / Oṃ Pāvaka Vaiśvānara, this is your seat; O you whose form is the splendour prepared in the womb of the fire-sticks, O great Brahman, during the three muhūrtas I awaken Vaiśvānara. / Oṃ, to Vaiśvānara may both come from afar, our fire […], on its back in heaven, on its back […] on earth, entering the plants; Vaiśvānara, fire on its back through power; homage to the heavenly one […] at night.”
