Urvāzišta — vegetative fire

Fire associated with plants

Urvāzišta is rendered at the navel as a visual analogy for vegetative growth, nourishment, and rooted life. The Bundahišn locates this fire in plants rather than at a human navel, so the point carries broad uncertainty and must not be read as a plant-energy organ.

Bundahišn (Zand-Āgāhīh), Greater Bundahišn chapter 17 (primary_canonical)

Chapter 17 assigns Urvāzišta to plants in the five-fire classification; the navel placement is a declared symbolic analogy to growth and nourishment, not a textual human-body location.
