14.3.2.23
ime vai lokāḥ pravargyaḥ sarvam vā ime lokāḥ sarvam pravargyaḥ sa yatpravṛktastadayaṃ loko yadrucitastadantarikṣaloko yatpinvitastadasau loko yadā vā asau lokaḥ pinvate'thainaṃ sarve devāḥ sarvāṇi bhūtānyupajīvanti pinvate ha vā asm: asau loko ya evametadveda
The Pravargya, indeed, is these worlds, for these worlds are everything, and the Pravargya is everything: when it is placed on the fire then it is this (terrestrial) world; when it is burning-hot then it is the air-world; and when it flows over then it is yonder (heavenly) world;--but, indeed; when yonder world overflows, all the gods and all beings subsist thereon; and, verily, yonder world overflows for him who thus knows this.
