The two said: 'If we shall be like this, then we will not be able to sustain the creatures. Come, let us be food, let us offer ourselves into each other!' When Āditya sets, he then offers himself into fire. Whatever evil Āditya does by day, Fire strikes that away from him by night. When Āditya rises, Fire rises after \[him\]. He then offers himself into Āditya. Whatever evil Fire does by night, Āditya strikes that away from him by day. Just as a snake would be freed from the snake-skin, just as one would pull out a stalk from Muñja grass, in the very same way he is freed from all evil, who, knowing thus, performs the fire-offering. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 0.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.0.8) - [Next: 0.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.0.10) - [Up: 0](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.0) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.0.9) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.0.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.0.9) · Pramāṇa
