Adhyaya 34 — Madālāsā’s Instruction on Sadācāra (Householder Conduct, Purity, and Daily Rites)
इति श्रीमार्कण्डेयपुराणे काम्यश्राद्धफलाकथनं नाम त्रयस्त्रिंशोऽध्यायः । चतुस्त्रिंशोऽध्यायः । मदालसोवाच एवम् पुत्र ! गृहस्थेन देवताः पितरस्तथा । संपूज्या हव्यकव्याभ्यामन्नेनातिथिबान्धवाः ॥
iti śrīmārkaṇḍeyapurāṇe kāmyaśrāddhaphalakathanaṃ nāma trayastriṃśo 'dhyāyaḥ | catuṣtriṃśo 'dhyāyaḥ | madālasovāca evam putra | gṛhasthena devatāḥ pitaras tathā | saṃpūjyā havyakavyābhyām annenātithibāndhavāḥ ||
かくして第三十三章「欲求成就のシュラーダ（kāmya-śrāddha）の果報の説示」は終わる。今、第三十四章が始まる。マダーラサは言った。「それゆえ、わが子よ。家住者は、神々を正しく敬い、同様に祖霊（父祖）をも、神々の供物（havis）と父祖の供物（kavya）とをもって供養すべきである。また食をもって、客人と親族を敬うべきである。」

FAQs
Householder life is sanctified by reciprocity: one sustains gods (through havis), ancestors (through kavya), and society (through feeding guests/kin). Dharma is portrayed as relational maintenance, not private piety alone.
Ācāra/Dharma instruction; not a pancalakṣaṇa segment proper, but a normative layer commonly embedded in Purāṇic discourse.
Havya and kavya represent two ‘streams’ of obligation—upward (to devas) and backward (to pitṛs). Balancing both is a symbolic balancing of future aspiration and ancestral continuity.
