Yonder world is the sacrificial fire, O Gautama, the sun the fuel, the rays the smoke, daytime the flame, the moon the embers and the stars the sparks.
Sama Veda, Chandogya Upanishad V, IV - The Five Fires (I), 1
In this fire the gods offer faith as libation. Out of that offering King Moon is born.
