Those gods and humans hungered, for the gods live from giving from here, and humans from giving from there. Therefore oblations did not go upward; rain was not bestowed downward from there. Those gods said to Ayāsya: 'Humans indeed do not know the sacrifice. It has been interrupted. Go over to them, arrange the sacrifice!' That Ayāsya, having gone, arranged the sacrifice for the humans with this very sāman. This sacrifice was arranged among humans. Having lived among humans, he no longer knew the heavenly world. He desired: 'May I know the heavenly world!' Having praised with this very sāman, he again knew the heavenly world. This is a sāman that brings heaven. He attains the heavenly world who knows thus. Moreover, his sacrifice is arranged with this very sāman. In that Ayāsya came from yonder world to this world, and went from this world to yonder world, he moved between these two worlds twice: that is the nature of the Dvaigata. Ayāsya indeed moved twice. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 37.215.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.37.215.p4) - [Next: 37.217](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.37.217) - [Up: 37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.37) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.37.216) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.37.216](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.37.216) · Pramāṇa
