A description of the experience
The Rig Veda [translated by Wendy Doniger]
The sacrifice that is spread out with the threads on all sides, drawn tight with a hundred and one divine acts, is woven by these fathers as they come near; ‘Weave forward, weave backwards’, they say as they sit by the loom that is stretched tight.
The Man stretches the warp and draws the weft; the man has spread it out upon this dome of the sky. These are the pegs, that are fastened in place; they made the melodies into the shuttles for weaving
What was the original model, and what was the copy, and what was the connection between them? What was the butter, and what the enclosing wood? What was the metre, what was the invocation, and the chant, when all the gods sacrificed the god?
