5.6.1

pṛthivī vāva gautamāgniḥ \
tasyāḥ samvatsara eva samit \
ākāśo dhūmaḥ \
rātrir arciḥ \
diśo 'ṅgārāḥ \
avāntaradiśo visphuliṅgāḥ \\506.1\

The earth indeed is the fire, O Gautama. Of that, the year is the fuel, Ākāśa is the smoke, night is the flame, the directions are the embers, and the intermediate directions are the sparks.

Swami Swahananda 1956, The Chāndogya Upaniṣad
