Adhyaya 31 — Naimittika and Related Śrāddha Rites: Sapiṇḍīkaraṇa, Eligibility, Timing, and Procedure
न पितॄणां तथैवान्ये शेषं पूर्ववदाचरेत् ।
पृथक् पाकेन नेत्यान्ये केचित् पूर्वञ्च पूर्ववत् ॥
na pitṝṇāṃ tathaivānye śeṣaṃ pūrvavad ācaret | pṛthak pākena nety anye kecit pūrvaṃ ca pūrvavat ||
কেউ বলেন—‘পিতৃদের ক্ষেত্রে তা নয়’; অবশিষ্ট অংশ পূর্ববৎই সম্পন্ন করবে। কেউ বলেন—‘পৃথক রান্না করে নয়।’ কেউ আবার উভয়ই বলেন—প্রথমে তা করে, তারপর পূর্ববিধি অনুসারে।
