सा भवेच्च न सन्देहः पुण्यदा पैतृकी तिथिः । तस्यां श्राद्धं प्रकर्तव्यं संभाराः संभृताश्च ये
sā bhavecca na sandehaḥ puṇyadā paitṛkī tithiḥ | tasyāṃ śrāddhaṃ prakartavyaṃ saṃbhārāḥ saṃbhṛtāśca ye
Это, без всякого сомнения, и есть предковая титхи, дарующая заслугу. В этот день непременно следует совершить шраддху (śrāddha) с теми ритуальными принадлежностями, какие были собраны.
Agniveśa
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim-householder at a tīrtha prepares a simple śrāddha: darbha grass, water vessel, a modest spread of gathered offerings; elders/Brāhmaṇas seated as witnesses; the mood is resolute and devotional.
Dharma requires timely action: when an auspicious pitṛ-tithi arrives, one should complete śrāddha with faith and preparedness.
Not specified in this verse; the emphasis is on the greatness (māhātmya) of an ancestral tithi within the chapter’s tīrtha setting.
Perform śrāddha on the declared auspicious ancestral tithi using the collected requisites (saṃbhāra).
