Adhyaya 35 — Madālasa’s Instruction on Purity, Impurity, and Corrective Rites (Śauca and Aśauca)
भक्ष्या ह्येते तथा वर्ज्यौ ग्रामशूकरकुक्कुटौ । पितृदेवादिशेषश्च श्राद्धे ब्राह्मणकाम्यया ॥
bhakṣyā hyete tathā varjyau grāmaśūkarakukkuṭau | pitṛdevādiśeṣaś ca śrāddhe brāhmaṇakāmyayā ||
这些确实被称为可食之物,然而村猪与公鸡当避。至于供献于祖灵(Pitṛ)、诸天及他类之后所余之物——在施行 śrāddha 时,可为食用,其意在敬奉并使婆罗门得满足。

Dharma is context-sensitive: the same category (food) can be prohibited generally yet permitted in a ritual frame (śrāddha) where intention, sanctification, and social duty (honoring brāhmaṇas and pitṛs) are central.
This is ritual-ethical instruction (ācāra) rather than cosmological genealogy; it sits outside the core pañcalakṣaṇa headings.
The ‘remnant’ (śeṣa) principle encodes sacralization: what is first offered becomes transformed in meaning, suggesting that intention and consecration can alter the ethical valence of consumption.
