Braharpanam brahma havir brahmagnau brahmanahutam
Brahmaiva tena gantavyam brahma karma samadhina
4:24
(Brahman is the samskrit word for Consciousness)
The One to which every offering is made is Brahman
The offering is Brahman and the one making the offering too

The fire unto which the offering drops in is Brahman too
There is nothing beyond the Brahman
All ‘actions’ are within the realms of Brahman and rest in Brahman.

There is nothing other than Consciousness
The farmer who tills the land
To give us grain in hand

The grain is an assimilation of five elements
Each of which is Brahman the ultimate Consciousness

The one who cooks the food is Consciousness
The one it is offered to is Consciousness
Every action thus is a worship unto the Consciousness
By the Consciousness of the Consciousness and for the Consciousness
And IN THE Consciousness.

Verily One
This knowledge too is Consciousness
Which turns ‘mundane’ into divine

In three types of space, Bhootha Aakash is outer space, chitta Aakash is our mind, and Chida Aakash is the sky of consciousness, which is all permeating, the consciousness which is the basis of all creation, the consciousness that is divine - that knows all. Nice blog Kitchenette soul.
