FAQs

Ritual worship should end with humility—seeking forgiveness for errors—and with dāna (charity) to sanctify the rite.

No single tīrtha is named in this verse; it gives general dharmic procedure for concluding worship (especially Sūrya-oriented rites in this adhyāya).

Offer concluding upacāras (water, lamp, ārati, cooling offerings), perform kṣamāprārthanā, do visarjana, give gifts to a brāhmaṇa, and immerse nirmālya in water.
