Sūta nói: “Hãy tưởng niệm các vị ấy mà bố thí cho từng vị, riêng rẽ từng phần. Và, ô bậc cao quý, những con bò hữu hình, có thật, phải được hiến tặng theo đúng thứ tự.”
Sūta
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis
Scene: Sūta instructs the sages: offerings must be given separately to each; a line of cows, garlanded and calm, stands ready for gifting; a brāhmaṇa recipient waits with ritual vessels as the sequence proceeds.
Devotion is made concrete through disciplined generosity—giving intentionally, individually, and with real offerings.
The instruction belongs to the Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra Māhātmya setting, guiding how merit is earned there through dāna.
Offer dāna to each intended recipient separately, and perform gau-dāna (gift of actual cows) in a prescribed order.
