य इच्छेत् सफलं जन्म जीवितं श्रुतमेव च । स पितुृंस्तर्पयेद् गाड्रमभिगम्य सुरांसतथा,जो अपने जन्म, जीवन और वेदाध्ययनको सफल बनाना चाहता हो वह गंगाजीके पास जाकर उनके जलसे देवताओं तथा पितरोंका तर्पण करे
ya icchet saphalaṁ janma jīvitaṁ śrutam eva ca | sa pitṝṁs tarpayet gāṅgram abhigamya surāṁs tathā ||
凡欲使其出生、其生命，乃至其圣学修习真正圆满者，当往恒河，以其水行“塔尔帕那”(tarpaṇa)之奠水供养，奉献于诸天与祖灵。

Educational Q&A
Sacred learning and human life become truly meaningful when expressed through dharmic action—especially gratitude to ancestors and reverence to the gods—performed here through tarpaṇa at the Gaṅgā.
A Siddha gives prescriptive counsel: one who seeks the ‘fruit’ of birth, life, and Vedic study should go to the Gaṅgā and perform tarpaṇa offerings to both devas and pitṛs, presenting ritual duty as a completion of learning.
