Pitṛ-Śrāddha Vidhi: Rājata-dāna, Kṛṣṇājina, and Vedi/Garta Construction
Ancestral Rite Protocols
अपसव्यं वितृभयश्च दद्यादञ्जनमुत्तमम् / निपात्य जानु सर्वेषां वस्त्रार्थं सूत्रमेव वा
apasavyaṃ vitṛbhayaśca dadyādañjanamuttamam / nipātya jānu sarveṣāṃ vastrārthaṃ sūtrameva vā
In the apasavya manner, and with the act that dispels fear, one should give the finest añjana. Then, kneeling before all, one should offer thread for a garment—or even a single thread alone.
