तुषधान्यं सनिष्पावं यच्चोच्छिष्टं च दीयते । अर्धभुक्तं घृतं क्षीरं तच्छ्राद्धं व्यर्थतां व्रजेत्
tuṣadhānyaṃ saniṣpāvaṃ yaccocchiṣṭaṃ ca dīyate | ardhabhuktaṃ ghṛtaṃ kṣīraṃ tacchrāddhaṃ vyarthatāṃ vrajet
Jika ditawarkan bijirin yang masih bersekam, atau makanan bercampur kekotoran, atau sisa makanan; atau diberi ghee dan susu yang telah dimakan sebahagiannya—maka śrāddha itu menjadi sia-sia.
Skanda (deduced)
Listener: King (rājan/nṛpa)
Scene: Close-up ritual still-life: winnowed grains, clean vessels of ghee and milk, fresh cooked offerings; a contrasting shadowed corner shows leftovers/impure grains marked as prohibited, emphasizing purity standards.
Offer the best and purest—ancestral rites demand reverence expressed through uncontaminated, worthy food.
No particular tīrtha is named in the verse; it provides general śrāddha-offering standards.
Do not offer chaffy/impure grain, leftovers, or partially consumed ghee and milk in śrāddha.
