atha gārhapatya evoṣānnivapati | nāhavanīye 'yaṃ vai loko gārhapatyaḥ paśava ūṣā asmiṃstalloke paśūndadhāti tasmādime 'smiṃloke paśavaḥ
And only on the Gârhapatya (site) he throws saline soil, not on the Âhavanîya; for the Gârhapatya is this (terrestrial) world, and saline soil means cattle: he thus bestows cattle on this world, whence there are cattle in this world.
