Those men who make gifts on the day of the new moon of sesame seeds and water, mixed with honey and using a vessel of copper, O you having penances for wealth, are considered as duly performing a Shraddha with all its mysteries. These men get children of sound health and cheerful minds.
अमावास्यां तु ये माः प्रयच्छन्ति तिलोदकम्॥ पात्रमौदुम्बरं गृह्य मधुमिश्रं तपोधन। कृतं भवति तैः श्राद्धं सरहस्यं यथार्थवत्॥ हृष्टपुष्टमनास्तेषां प्रजा भवति नित्यदा।
