śrāddhaṃ kṛtvā yathānyāyamanindyān bhojayeddvijān | pitarastasya tṛpyanti dvādaśābdānyasaṃśayam
ក្រោយធ្វើពិធីស្រាទ្ធៈតាមវិធានត្រឹមត្រូវ គួរឲ្យបរិភោគអាហារដល់ព្រាហ្មណ៍ទ្វិជៈដែលគ្មានទោស; ដោយមិនសង្ស័យ បិត្របុព្វបុរសរបស់គាត់ពេញចិត្តរយៈពេលដប់ពីរឆ្នាំ។
Deductive (Revā-khaṇḍa narrator/ṛṣi)
Tirtha: Koṭiliṅga (within Revākhaṇḍa context)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim at a riverbank tīrtha performs śrāddha with kuśa grass and piṇḍas, then respectfully serves a line of serene brāhmaṇas; subtle presence of pitṛs receiving satisfaction.
Correct procedure and worthy recipients make śrāddha efficacious, producing enduring benefit for one’s lineage.
The verse is part of the Revā-khaṇḍa tīrtha-instructions; it emphasizes śrāddha correctness rather than naming a new site.
Perform śrāddha as per rule and feed worthy (anindya) dvijas; the stated fruit is twelve years of pitṛ satisfaction.
