11.5.4.3
athainam bhūtebhyaḥ paridadāti prajāpataye tvā paridadāmi devāya tvā savitre paridadāmītyete vai śreṣṭhe varṣiṣṭhe devate etābhyāmevainaṃ śreṣṭhābhyāṃ varṣiṣṭhābhyāṃ devatābhyām paridadāti tathā hāsya brahmacārī na kāṃ canārtimārcati na sa ya evaṃ veda
He then commits him to the beings:--'To Pragâpati I commit thee, to the god Savitri I commit thee;'--now these are two most high and most important deities: it is to these two most high and most important deities he commits him; and thus his disciple suffers no harm of any kind, nor does he who knows this.
