1.3.2.3
prāṇa eva sruvaḥ | so 'yam prāṇaḥ sarvāṇyaṅgānyanusaṃcarati tasmādu sruvaḥ sarvā anu srucaḥ saṃcarati
The dipping-spoon (sruva, masc.) is no other than the breath. This breath passes through (or, goes to) all the limbs, and for that reason the dipping-spoon goes to all the offering-spoons (sruk, fem.).
