One should pour it out at the chanting-place (āstāva).' That hearth (dhiṣṇya) of both the Udgātṛ and the sacrificer is indeed the chanting-place; the chanting-place is a support. In this very support they thereby establish these desires. Having poured out as much of them there as desired, one should then pour them inside the enclosure-sticks (paridhi). Thus those \[waters\] become both offered and unoffered for them. Just as these two known breaths are indistinct, so these two, being hearths, are uncomprehended; being these two breaths, they are unpierced; being these two hearths, they are not distributed. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 20.115](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.20.115) - [Next: 20.117](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.20.117) - [Up: 20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.20) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.20.116) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.20.116](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.20.116) · Pramāṇa
