Orighteous and illustrious one, I am performing these rites in honour of the departed manes for the sake of Narayana and according to those ordinances that have been ordained by himself. The illustrious Narayana is the father, mother, and grandfather.
यजामि वै पितृन् साधो नारायणविधौ कृते। एवं स एव भगवान् पिता माता पितामहः॥
