2.6.3.14

athātaḥ | parivartanasyaiva sarvatomukho vā asāvāditya eṣa vā idaṃ sarvaṃ nirdhayati yadidaṃ kiṃ ca śuṣyati tenaiṣa sarvatomukhastenānnādaḥ

Then as to (the Sacrificer) shaving his head all round. Now yonder sun, indeed, faces every quarter; it drinks up whatever (moisture) it dries up here: hence this (Sacrificer) thereby faces every quarter and becomes a consumer of food.

Julius Eggeling 1882, The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44)
