Jaiminīya (Talavakāra) Brāhmaṇa 2-3.120

Now these two Anukrī rites. The Ādityas and the Aṅgirases contended for the heavenly world. The Ādityas went to the heavenly world first. The Aṅgirases desired, 'May we also go to that world to which the Ādityas went.' They saw this sacrifice. Being that very one, they brought it cryptically. They sacrificed with it. Leading a white mare as the sacrificial gift, they came to share the world with the Ādityas. These Ādityas and Aṅgirases share the same world. He who knows this comes to share the same world with the Ādityas and the Aṅgirases. And they also say, 'He whose rival is superior should sacrifice with this.' For he who is superior is like one gone before; by means of this they overtook those who had gone before. Having overtaken the superior, he becomes better off in himself.

A field of wheat serves as the altar,

for that has already been prepared.

The high altar is made of wheat, for crypticness.

A threshing-floor peg, sword-pointed, sacred to Indra, serves as the sacrificial post,

for victory. They immolate the animals together, for attainment.

A cow is the purchase-price of the soma, for crypticness.

In an earthen pot is the Vasatīvarī water, from the house of one who has sacrificed before,

for it was taken previously.

Having eaten something with clarified butter, he lies down;

that very meal of the consecration ceremony which he eats becomes this meal for him.

He lies between the thighs of his dear wife without lying down [to sleep].

That is indeed his ascetic toil. Having placed gold in his mouth, he lies down.

Gold, indeed, is truth.
