Bṛhaspati Said:: The intelligent (devotee performing Śrāddha) in all these places shall attain the Brāhmī Siddhī (the state of being the Brahman and the attainment of spiritual enlightenment). The opportunity of worshipping the Pitṛs is attainable to those people engaged in the activities ordaṃed for the people belonging to the three high castes and the different stages of life. They must discard (the occasions of) anger. Even a person who has committed many sins becomes sanctified if he boldly undertakes the pilgrimages with great faith, concentration and mental purity. What then in the case of a person performing splendid holy rites? He is never born in the lower species of animals nor in despicable country.
