Brahmā (Brahma) had accumulated the offerings made in various yajña (yajna) at the site of the death of Gayāsura (Gayasura) in the epoch of Svetavarāhakalpa (Shwetavarahakalpa) and created many priests out of his own mind. Agniśarma (Agnisharma) was one of them. Agniśarma produced five Fires (Agni) — namely, Dakṣiṇāgni (Dakshinagni), Gārhapatyāgni (Garhapatyagni), Āhavanīya (Ahavaniya), Sabhya and Āvasathya (Avasathya) — out of his own mouth. With these five Fires yajña are carried out.
