The last of the refuges is the quarter of space itself: yāṁ diśam abhiṣṭoṣyan syāt tāṁ diśam upadhāvet — "in whatever quarter he will praise, to that quarter resort": even the space into which the song will fly is not a void but a living addressee, a guardian-diś with a face of its own (the Aitareya: out of hearing came forth the quarters of space!).
So the circle is closed: melody, verse, seer, deity, metre, stoma, quarter — seven refuges, and before uttering a sound the singer has bowed seven times and asked leave. A chant grown out of seven bows cannot fail of its end: it is already woven of relations with everything toward which it flies. The lesson reaches far beyond ritual: begin every work by resorting — to the work, to its teachers, to its Addressee; a work that has been resorted to carries the worker itself.
