पात्रलक्षण-परिक्षा (Pātra-Lakṣaṇa Parīkṣā) — Criteria for a Worthy Recipient
नच प्रेत्य विनश्यन्ति गच्छन्ति च परां गतिम् इसी प्रकार वे यजमान भी प्रसन्न होते हैं जिनकी दी हुई हवि ब्राह्मणोंके उपयोगमें आती है। वे मरनेके बाद नष्ट नहीं होते हैं, उत्तम गतिको प्राप्त हो जाते हैं
na ca pretya vinaśyanti gacchanti ca parāṃ gatim
毗湿摩说道：“同样，那些祭主（yajamāna）所献之供献若为婆罗门所受用，祭主亦由衷满足。其人死后不致沉灭，反而得至最高之归趣。”

Educational Q&A
Gifts and sacrificial offerings bear lasting fruit when they are properly directed—especially when oblations are used by worthy Brāhmaṇas—so the giver gains enduring merit and a higher post-mortem destiny rather than spiritual loss.
In Bhīṣma’s instruction on dharma, he explains the benefit of correctly offered and rightly utilized sacrificial gifts: the patron (yajamāna) is pleased, and those connected with such offerings attain a superior spiritual outcome after death.
