Preview of English translation:
12. This (terrestrial) world in truth is his (Prajapati's) Garhapatya (hearth); and what fire there is in this world that to him is the fire on the Garhapatya. And what space there is between the Ahavaniya and the Garhapatya, that is the air; and that wind in the air is for him the fire on the Agnidhriya. The sky is his Ahavaniya (hearth), and those two, the sun and the moon, are the fire on the Ahavaniya. This then is indeed his own self.
