भगुभिश्नन्विरोेभ्यश्व हुतं मन्त्र: पृथग्विधै: । हव्यं गृहीत्वा वह्निं च प्रविशन््तं दिवाकरम्,भूगु तथा अंगिरा गोत्रके ऋषियोंद्वारा पृथक्ू-पृथक् मन्त्र पढ़कर हवन किये हुए हविष्यको ग्रहण करके अग्निदेव भी सूर्यमें ही प्रवेश करते हैं
bhṛgubhiś cāṅgirobhiś ca hutam mantraiḥ pṛthagvidhaiḥ | havyaṃ gṛhītvā vahniṃ ca praviśantaṃ divākaram ||
เหล่าฤๅษีแห่งสายภฤคุและอังคิรสได้บูชาหอมด้วยมนตร์ต่าง ๆ ครั้นอัคนีเทพรับเครื่องบูชาแล้ว ก็เสด็จเข้าสู่พระอาทิตย์
मार्कण्डेय उवाच
Properly performed yajña, guided by distinct mantras and lineage-based ritual knowledge, aligns human action with cosmic order; the oblation is received by Agni and is ultimately conveyed into the solar principle, symbolizing the return of offerings to their luminous source and the maintenance of ṛta/dharma.
Mārkaṇḍeya describes a ritual-cosmic process: sages of the Bhṛgu and Aṅgiras traditions offer oblations with varied mantras; Agni receives the havya and then ‘enters’ the Sun, portraying the sacrificial fire as a conduit linking earthly rites to the celestial realm.
