Shatapatha Brahmana (SB 6.1.1.1) tells us that Prajapati was generated through the ''tapas'' of the ''rishis'' (equated with the non-existent of the Beginning), thereafter, through his own ''tapas'' Prajapati generated all the gods and all the creatures. He also generated Agni as the sacrificial fire and as the second self having wearied himself his glow and essence of him heated up and developed Agni (SB 10.6.5.2). Ritually Agni, as the altar built by the sacrifice, reconstitutes Prajapati.
