ek bar aruni-putr shvetaketu paanchal naresh jival ki rajasabha mean pahuancha. jival ke putr pravahan ne usase poochha ki kya usane apane pita se shiksha grahan ki hai? is par shvetaketu ne 'haan' kahaan tab pravahan ne usase kuchh prashn kiye-
pravahan-'kya tumhean pata hai ki mrityu ke bad manushy ki atma kahaan jati hai? kya tumhean pata hai ki vah atma is lok mean kis prakar ati hai? kya tumhean devayan aur pitriyan margoan ke alag hone ka sthan pata hai? kya tumhean pata hai ki pitrilok kyoan nahian marata? kya tumhean pata hai ki paanchavian ahuti ke yajan kar diye jane par ghrit sahit somadi ras 'purush' sanjna ko kaise prapt karate haian?'
pravahan ke in prashnoan ka uttar shvetaketu ne nakaratmak diyaan tab pravahan ne kaha-'phir tumane kyoan kaha ki tumhean shiksha pradan ki gayi hai?'
shvetaketu is prashn ka uttar bhi nahian de saka. vah trast hokar apane pita ke pas aya aur unhean sara vartalap sunaya. aruni ne bhi un prashnoan ka uttar n janane ke bare mean kaha. tab donoan pita-putr paanchal naresh jival ke darabar mean pun: aye aur prashnoan ke uttar janane ki jijnasa prakat ki.
raja ne donoan ka svagat kiya aur kuchh kal apane yahaan rakhakar ek din kaha-'he gautam! prachinakal mean yah agni-vidya brahmanoan ke pas nahian thi. isi karan yah vidya kshatriyoan ke pas rahi.'raja ne age kaha-'he gautam! yah prasiddh dyulok hi agni hai. adity agni ka eedhan hai, kiranean dhuaan haian, shadin jvala hai, chandrama aangar hai aur nakshatr chinagariyaan haian is dyulok agni mean devagan shraddha se yajan karate haian. ve jo ahuti dalate haian, usase 'som' raja ka pradurbhav hota hai.'
raja ne age kaha-'he gautam! is agni-vidya mean parjany hi agni hai. vayu samidhaean haian, badal dhoomr haian, vidyut jvalaean hai, vajr aangar hai aur garjan chinagariyaan haian. is devagni mean som ki ahuti dalane se varsha prakat hoti hai.'
raja ne phir kaha-'he gautam! prithvi hi agni hai, sanvatsar samidhaean haian, akash dhoomr hai, ratri jvalaean haian, dishaean aangare haian aur unake kone chinagariyaan haian. us shreshth divyagni mean varsha ki ahuti p dane se annh ka pradurbhav hota hai.'
raja ne chauthe prashn ka uttar diya-'he gautam! yah purush hi divyagni hai, vani samidhaean haian, pran dhoomr hai, jihva jvala hai, netr aangare haian aur kan chinagariyaan haian. is divyagni mean sabhi devata milakar jab ann ki ahuti dete haian, to viry, arthath purusharth ki utpatti hoti hai.'
paanchavean prashn ka uttar dete hue raja ne kaha-'he gautam!us agni-vidya ki stri hi divyagni hai, usaka garbhashay samidha hai, vicharoan ka aveg dhuaan hai, usaki yoni jvala hai, stri-purush ke sahavas se utpann divyagni aangare haian aur anandanubhooti chinagariyaan haian us divyagni mean devagan jab viry ki ahuti dalate haian, tab shreshth garbh ka avataran hota hai. is paanchavian ahuti ke uparant pratham ahuti mean homa gaya 'ap:' (jal-mool jivan) kaya mean sthit purushavachak 'jiv ya prani' ke roop mean vikasit ho jata hai.
'samay ane par yahi jiv, jivan-pravah mean p dakar naya janm le leta hai aur nishchit ayu tak jivit rahata hai. isake bad sharir tyagane par karmavash paralok ko gaman karate hue vah vahian chala jata hai, jahaan se vah aya tha. jo sadhak is panchagni-vidya ko janakar shraddhapoorvak upasana karate haian, ve sabhi prani, prayan ke uparant 'devayan marg' aur 'pitriyan marg' se pun: dyulok mean chale jate haian.'
