The Sages Said: Good fortune to you. I wish to hear the excellent injunction regarding Śrāddha. Who are laid down in Smṛtis as their sons and how are they Pitṛs (manes). How were they born? What were their names? Of what nature are they? Are these Pitṛs who are deities unto the Devas, in heaven? Thus I wish to understand the excellent creation of the Pitṛs and how the Śrāddha performed by us propitiates the Pitṛs.
