Nakṣatra-Śrāddha (Ancestral Rites Connected with Asterisms) — नक्षत्रश्राद्धम्
इमं विधिं यो हि पठेदतन्द्रितः समाहितः संसदि पर्वसंधिषु / अपत्यभागी च परेण तेजसा दिवौकसां स व्रजते सलोकताम्
imaṃ vidhiṃ yo hi paṭhedatandritaḥ samāhitaḥ saṃsadi parvasaṃdhiṣu / apatyabhāgī ca pareṇa tejasā divaukasāṃ sa vrajate salokatām
Whoever recites this ordinance without sloth, with a collected mind, in the assembly and at the junctures of sacred festivals—shining with higher splendor—gains the blessing of offspring and attains salokatā, dwelling in the same realm as the denizens of heaven.
