Explicación

Prajapati's words continue. Through sacrifice (yajña), humans sustain the gods, the powers that govern nature, and the gods in turn sustain humans. The key word is parasparam, mutually. The world is pictured as a web of exchange in which each side supports the other. Some read the gods literally as Vedic deities, others as the forces of nature and the cosmic order. In either reading, the verse teaches that well-being comes from contributing to the whole, not from seeking one's own gain in isolation.
