**Somasen Bhattaraka's Composition**
When there is a serious illness, during the time of conception and other rituals, and at the time of the death of a father, etc., the wise should perform the entire Homa ritual by observing the characteristics of the Kundas, as described earlier, at the appropriate times. || 175 || 176 || 177 ||
**The Fruit of Performing Homa**
When the Homa ritual is performed, peace prevails in the world. Now, the characteristics of the Yajamana, as described in other scriptures, will be mentioned. || 178 ||
**The Yajamana**
The Yajamana in this Homa ritual is primarily the wife, son, daughter, Ritvik, disciple, Guru, brother, nephew, and son-in-law. Whatever is offered by them is considered as if offered by oneself. If the performer is unable to perform the Homa due to some work, then the Homa performed by them should be considered as if performed by oneself. || 179 || 180 ||
**The Time for Performing Homa**
The Brahmin should perform the Homa when the sun rises, or before sunrise, or in the morning when the cows are released to graze. The time from sunrise until the sun rises one handspan above the earth is considered the morning time for performing Homa. || 181 || 182 ||
