The lord said: Those who perform sacrifices,[5] observe holy rites and meditate on the great lord with devout feelings about the divine sports of the lord, attain immortality by passing through the noble northern path. Those who resort to the cremation ground, by means of the southern path, attain the eight perfections: Aṇimā, Garimā, Laghimā, Prāpti, Kāmāvasāyitā, Prākāmya, Īśitva, Vaśitva and also immortality (in the end).[6]
