Its two ends are winter and spring. According to this, the two ends of a village come together; according to this, the two ends of a necklace come together; according to this, a snake lies encircling its coils. That is this food. That divine wheel, inexhaustible, ever new, revolves hither and thither. He who knows this thus wins this endlessness, this inexhaustibleness, this ever-newness. With "Agni, come to the feast," they indeed summon him by this. With "Agni the messenger we choose," they indeed choose him by this. With "Agni is kindled by Agni," they indeed kindle him together. With "May Agni strike the Vṛtras down," they conquer this completely by this. With "Thy glories, as of lightning...", they bestow glory upon him by this. He who knows the case-form of the sixth day reaches full life. "To Jātavedas" (jātavedase) is indeed the case-form of the sixth day, and "O Agni" (agne). He who knows this reaches full life. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58.331.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331.p1) devā vai pṛṣṭhye ṣaḍahe śriyamaicchan > The gods indeed sought prosperity in the pṛṣṭhya six-day rite. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58.331.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331.p2) tāmagna iti prathame'hannānvavindan > They did not find it on the first day with "O Agni." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58.331.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331.p3) tāmagnimiti dvitīya'hannānvavindan > They did not find it on the second day with "Agni." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58.331.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331.p4) tāmagnineti tṛtīye'hannānvavindan > They did not find it on the third day with "by Agni." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58.331.p5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331.p5) tāmagnirityeva caturthe'hannanvavindan > They found it indeed on the fourth day with "Agni." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58.331.p6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331.p6) bhūtamevottare'nvavadatām > The two subsequent \[days\] confirmed what had come to be. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58.331.p7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331.p7) yasmādeṣā samānā satyagnivibhaktiratha nānā bhavati ya ete praviṣṭāḥ > Because this case-inflection of Agni, being identical, is yet varied, whoever has entered upon these \[days\]— > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.58.331) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.58.331) · Pramāṇa
