Adhyaya 32 — Rules for Parvana Śrāddha: Foods that Please the Ancestors and Items to Avoid
वर्जनीयṃ सदा सदिभस्तत्पयः श्राद्धकर्मणि ।
वर्ज्या जन्तुमती रूक्षा क्षितिः प्लुष्टा तथाग्निना ॥
varjanīyaṃ sadā sadibhas tat-payaḥ śrāddha-karmaṇi / varjyā jantumatī rūkṣā kṣitiḥ pluṣṭā tathāgninā
En el śrāddha debe evitarse siempre la leche vinculada con «sadibhas» (término textual incierto; probablemente leche manchada/impura o de animal/condición impropia). También debe evitarse el suelo lleno de seres vivos (infestado), el suelo seco y áspero, y la tierra abrasada por el fuego.

Ritual correctness includes the environment: the offering-ground should be non-harming and stable (not infested, not harsh, not burnt). This reflects a dharmic sensitivity to life and cleanliness.
Dharma/ācāra guidance.
The ‘field’ of the rite (kṣetra) mirrors the inner field of mind. An infested/burnt ground symbolizes distraction and agitation; śrāddha aims at steady, benevolent recollection.
