Bhagavad Gita 9.16 — God in every offering

अहं क्रतुरहं यज्ञः स्वधाहमहमौषधम्। मन्त्रोऽहमहमेवाज्यमहमग्निरहं हुतम् ॥

ahaṃ kraturahaṃ yajñaḥ svadhāhamahamauṣadham | mantro'hamahamevājyamahamagnirahaṃ hutam ||

Meaning

I am the ritual, I am the sacrifice, I am the offering to the ancestors, I am the healing herb. I am the mantra, I am the ghee, I am the fire and I am the act of offering.
