> Śāṭyāyani said to Gobala Vārṣṇa: 'Revered sir, you possess illustrious ancestors and grandfathers. I intend to be consecrated for the year-long rite; instruct me.' He replied: 'So be it. I shall tell you the course knowing which, unafflicted, one reaches the conclusion of the year, and, having risen, becomes prosperous and praiseworthy.' He said: 'They proceed through these twelve months. The four months through which they proceed from there, they proceed through them by Agni's course; by that they attain Agni among the deities and this world. Then the next four months through which they proceed, they proceed through them by Vāyu's course; by that they attain Vāyu among the deities and the intermediate world. The next four months through which they proceed, they proceed through them by Āditya's course; by that they attain Āditya among the deities and that yonder world.'
