> Day after day the Sujñāna is \[performed\].  
> He indeed, as Udgātṛ, would consecrate the session-sacrificers for a sacrificial session, if he were to cause them to ascend to the divine territory of the gods.

> Regarding this they say: 'They fall away, as it were, from this world who day after day undertake the Sujñāna.'  
> When it is a Rathantara day, on that \[day\] they should undertake the Pauṣkala; on a Bārhata day, the Sujñāna.  
> Regarding this, moreover, they say: 'All these forms are verily in the Sujñāna.'  
> 'Suvarvidaḥ' is the form of this world; 'e' of the intermediate space; 'suvar' of yonder \[world\].
