अस्मत्कुले मृता ये च गतिर्येषां न विद्यते । रौरवे चांधतामिस्रे कालसूत्रे च ये गताः । तेषामुद्धरणार्थाय इमं पिंडं ददाम्यहम्
asmatkule mṛtā ye ca gatiryeṣāṃ na vidyate | raurave cāṃdhatāmisre kālasūtre ca ye gatāḥ | teṣāmuddharaṇārthāya imaṃ piṃḍaṃ dadāmyaham
Для тех, кто умер в нашем роду и кому неведом дальнейший приют и путь — для ушедших в Раурава, Андхатамисру или Каласутру — ради их избавления я приношу эту пинду (piṇḍa).
