Having washed the hands and sipped water, he should make offerings to his paternal relations; and having treated his paternal relations well, he should feed his other relations also.鈥�(264)

 

Medh膩tithi鈥檚 commentary (尘补苍耻产丑腻峁�y补):

The balls having been disposed of, he should wash his hands; and then follow the rules regarding sipping of water.

鈥�闯帽补迟颈辫谤腻测补尘鈥欌�攊s to be explained as 鈥榯hat which goes to (praiti) to the paternal relations (箩帽腻迟颈峁�u);鈥� this he should make; i.e., he should offer food to them.

鈥�Having treated than well, he should feed other relations.鈥� Those belonging to the same 鈥�gotra鈥� are called 鈥�箩帽补迟颈,鈥� 鈥榩aternal relations,鈥� while those related on the mother鈥檚 and the wife鈥檚 side are called 鈥�产腻峁囜笉丑补惫补,鈥� 鈥榬eleations.鈥�

The following question is here raised:鈥�

鈥淚t has been said above (in verse 253) that 鈥榟e should do us they tell him;鈥� now if they were to tell him, 鈥楽end all this food to our home,鈥� then, what would become of the 痴补颈艣惫补诲别惫补 and other oblations?鈥�

In that case, the man will have to cook food again. Or, the offering of the remnant to the Br膩hma峁嘺s may be regarded as being prescribed only with a view to some transcendental result,鈥攁nd not with a view to their actually taking it all away. For instance, it has been laid down that 鈥斺�� When informed of food having been left, they should say it is for your friends;鈥� and this direction would have to be regarded as only optional, if, in certain cases, the Br膩hma峁嘺s were to take away the food.鈥�(264)

 

Explanatory notes by Ganganath Jha

There is nothing in Medh膩tithi to show that he reads 鈥�辫奴箩补测别迟鈥� for 鈥�bhojayet鈥�, as stated by Buhler.

This verse is quoted in 础辫补谤腻谤办补 (p. 512), which explains 鈥�闯帽腻迟颈鈥� as 鈥榬elations on the father鈥檚 side鈥�, and 鈥�产腻苍诲丑补惫补鈥� as 鈥榬elations on the mother鈥檚 side鈥�;鈥攁nd in 贬别尘腻诲谤颈 (艢谤腻诲诲丑补, p. 1515), which has the following notes:鈥斺��闯帽腻迟颈鈥� are relations on the father鈥檚 side, i.e., Sapi峁囜笉as;鈥攖he remnant of the food cooked for the 艢谤腻诲诲丑补 should be made to reach those; i.e., they should be fed with it with due respect; after which one should honour the 鈥�叠腻苍诲丑补惫补蝉,鈥� i.e., relations on the mother鈥檚 and the wife鈥檚 side; if, however, on being asked 鈥榳hat shall be done with the remnant?鈥欌�攖he Br膩hma峁嘺s should say 鈥榞ive it to us鈥欌�攖hen other food should be cooked for the relations; and these are to be fed with the remnant, only if so permitted by the Br膩hma峁嘺s. It may be regarded as incumbent on the Br膩hma峁嘺s to give this permission.
