“When the soma is poured onto the sacrificial fire in the daily morning rite, it (the fire) becomes symbolically infused with immortality. The fire, thus transformed, is considered to be the soul of all the gods. The sacrifice, by partaking of the remnants of the soma left in the container, similarly absorbs into his own body the same element of immortality and thus is said to be granted a full span of life in the sense that he attains to the state of immortality” (Sivaraman/Sharma 30, Vedanta Through The Vedas).
