यज्ञशिष्टाशिनः सन्तो मुच्यन्ते सर्वकिल्बिषैः | भुञ्जते ते त्वघं पापा ये पचन्त्यात्मकारणात्
yajñaśiṣṭāśinaḥ santo mucyante sarvakilbiṣaiḥ . bhuñjate te tvaghaṃ pāpā ye pacantyātmakāraṇāt
En prenant part aux restes des sacrifices, les justes sont libérés de tous les péchés. Mais les personnes impies qui cuisinent pour elles-mêmes, elles encourent le péché.
By becoming partakers of the remembers of sacrifices, they become freed from all sins. But the unholy persons who cook for themselves, they incur sin.
Ceux qui, après avoir accompli les cinq grands sacrifices (Mahā-Yajñas), mangent les restes de la nourriture sont libérés de tous les péchés commis par les cinq agents de destruction d'insectes quotidiens (pilon, meule, foyer, lieu de la jarre d'eau, balai). Ces péchés sont lavés par l'accomplissement des cinq Mahā-Yajñas que chaque Dvija (personne des trois premières castes) devrait accomplir : Deva-Yajña (offrandes aux divinités), Brahma-Yajña (étude des écritures), Pitri-Yajña (libations aux ancêtres), Nri-Yajña (nourrir les affamés et les invités) et Bhuta-Yajña (nourrir les espèces subhumaines).
Those who? after performing the five great sacrifices? eat the remnants of the food are freed from all the sins committed by these five agents of insect slaughter? viz.? (1) the pestle and mortar? (2) the grinding stone? (3) the fireplace? (4) the place where the waterpot is kept? and (5) the broom. These are the five places where injury to life is daily committed. The sins are washed away by the performance of the five MahaYajnas or great sacrifices which every Dvija(twicorn or the people belonging to the first three castes in Hindu society? especially the Brahmin) ought to perform1.
