Transliteration

daivam evāpare yajñaṁ yoginaḥ paryupāsate | brahmāgnāv apare yajñaṁ yajñenaivopajuhvati ||

Translation

Одни йогины совершают жертву как поклонение божественным силам. Другие же, видя Брахмана самим огнём, вливают жертву в этот огонь самой жертвой — приносят в дар себя через внутреннее почитание.
