- **Language:** Sanskrit

### [9.4.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki.9.4.26)

cyoṣyata iti tathā ha syāt /

> oblation holder, which is facing east, (thinking) ‘The right oblation holder is this world; this world is a support; let me be unmoved in going on this support.’ He should not move to right or left from the place where he stands as he says the final verse. If he should move from it to right or left, and if some one were to say of him, ‘He shall fall away’, so would it be. After concluding, having wheeled round on his right arm, keeping silence, have gone as he came, having stood where standing he has uttered the first (verse), both in the rite and in the taking forth of the fires, he should go to his place.
