हीनांगा ह्यधिकांगा वा यस्मिञ्च्छ्राद्धे द्विजातयः । भुंजते वृषलीनाथास्तदस्माकं प्रजायते
hīnāṃgā hyadhikāṃgā vā yasmiñcchrāddhe dvijātayaḥ | bhuṃjate vṛṣalīnāthāstadasmākaṃ prajāyate
Lễ śrāddha mà các dvija (người “sinh hai lần”) thọ thực khi thân thể khiếm khuyết hay thừa chi (không hợp nghi), và những kẻ vướng mắc vào sự kết giao bất chính—lễ ấy thuộc về chúng ta (các preta).
Māṃsāda
Listener: Nṛpa (King)
Scene: A śrāddha feast line: some invitees appear ritually unfit; the householder looks uncertain; pretas gather behind the unfit diners, receiving the subtle essence of the offering.
Rites bear fruit according to fitness and propriety; wrong recipients and improper context distort the intended offering.
No specific tīrtha is mentioned in this verse.
Select ritually appropriate participants/recipients for śrāddha according to the tradition’s eligibility norms.
