'As equal,' they said. In that they said, 'As equal,' they thereby made the rain equal, and in equality \[they made\] the realm, and they made agreement. But if they had said, 'As unequal,' the rain would have become unequal, the realm \[would have been\] in inequality, and there would have been disagreement. \[They said:\] 'By what shall we be united?' 'By the Yajñāyajñīya \[sāman\],' \[he said\]. Therefore they unite by the Yajñāyajñīya. The Yajñāyajñīya is speech; these worlds are speech. By speech they ascended unto speech. On the first day they gave three hundred and thirty-three \[cattle\]; through that, he prospered with the Vasus in this world. On the second day they gave three hundred and thirty-three \[cattle\]; through that, he prospered with the Rudras in this intermediate world. On the third day they gave three hundred and thirty-three \[cattle\]; through that, he prospered with the Ādityas in that world. He who, knowing thus, sacrifices with this sacrificial rite, prospers among these deities and attains these worlds. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-7.253.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-7.253.p1) prajāpatiryadagre sahasramasṛjata tatprajābhyaḥ prāyacchadetadvassaheti > When Prajāpati in the beginning created the thousand, he gave it to the creatures, \[saying\]: 'This is with you (saha).
