Thereafter with a cocoanut and small jar in his band, he came to the bank of the Gangā, and dived inside the water. Then having completed his bath and cleaned his mouth and body, he came back to his thatch and decorated the altar with sand, cocoanut and kuģa and lit a fire on it by rubbing two pieces of sacrificial wood. Then to the right hand side of the said fire, he placed seven objects as follows: sakathā (an object of worship), bark, lamp, bed, water pot, staff and his own body. Then he offered oblation to Vaiśyadeva into the fire with honey, ghee and rice. Then he fed a guest and broke his fast.
