sa vai dhīkṣate | vāce hi dhīkṣate yajñāya hi dhīkṣate yajño hi vāgdhīkṣito ha vai nāmaitadyaddīkṣita iti
He verily anoints himself,--it is for speech that he anoints himself, since he anoints himself for the sacrifice, and the sacrifice is speech. Dhîkshita (the anointed) doubtless is the same as dîkshita (the consecrated).
