दैवमेवापरे यज्ञं योगिनः पर्युपासते ।
ब्रह्माग्नावपरे यज्ञं यज्ञेनैवोपजुह्वति
॥ ४=२५॥

paryupāsate l brahmāgnāvapare
yajñaṁ yajñenaivopajuhvati

Some yogis worship the gods by
offering various sacrifices to them,
While others worship by offering
sacrifices in the fire of the supreme.

The being which has surrendered to the four tattvas is brahmaṇyam bahuputratām—the favorite inheritor of the Cosmos.
