(Then the bull said) ‘Agni (fire) will tell you about another foot of Brahman.’ The next day Satyakāma collected the cows and drove them towards his teacher’s house. At dusk they arrived at a place (where they halted for the night). Having confined the cows and collected some fuel, he lit a fire and sat down just behind it facing east.
Fire called to him, ‘O Satyakāma.’ He replied, ‘Yes, lord’.
(Fire said) ‘O Somya, let me tell you about one foot of Brahman.’ (Satyakāma replied) ‘Yes, lord, please tell me.’ (Fire) said to him: ‘The earth is one part, the mid-region is another part, space is a third part, and the ocean is a fourth part. O Somya, these are the four parts that make up a foot of Brahman. This foot is named Anantavān, the Unlimited’.
‘He who knows this foot of Brahman, which has four parts and is known as “the Unlimited,” and worships it as such becomes long-lived in this world. He who knows this foot of Brahman, which has four parts and is known as “the Unlimited,” and worships it as such attains worlds which are long-lasting’.
