Sūta said:: If the devotees are engaged in these holy rites till their death in seven ways viz. penance, celibacy, Yajña, progeny Śrāddha, learning and charitable gifts, they go to heaven and rejoice there along with those Devas, Pitṛs, Sūkṣmajas (subtle-borns) and Somayājins (those who perform Soma sacrifices). They perform worships like the Pitṛs. If water libation is offered by the members of their families and their kinsmen, (the Pitṛs known as) Somalaukikas partake of monthly Śrāddhas and become contented. These (Pitṛs) who partake of monthly Śrāddhas are Manuṣyapitṛs (Human Manes).
