Srimad Bhagavat-upadesh-amrita

[Guest guest]

SB 7.15.2: A person desiring liberation for his forefathers or himself should

give charity to a brahmana who adheres to Advaitavaad or impersonal monism

(Jnana-nistha). In the absence of such an advanced brahmana, charity may be

given to a brahmana addicted to fruitive activities (karma-kanda).

 

SB 7.15.3: During the period for offering oblations to the demigods, one should

invite only two brahmanas, and while offering oblations to the forefathers, one

may invite three brahmanas. Or, in either case, only one brahmana will suffice.

Even though one is very opulent, he should not endeavor to invite more brahmanas

or make various expensive arrangements on those occasions.

 

SB 7.15.4: If one arranges to feed many brahmanas or relatives during the

Shraddha ceremony, there will be discrepancies in the time, place,

respectability and ingredients, the person to be worshiped, and the method of

offering worship.

 

SB 7.15.5: When one gets the opportunity of a suitable auspicious time and

place, one should, with love, offer food prepared with ghee to the Deity of the

Supreme Personality of Godhead and then offer the prasada to a suitable person

— a Vaishnava or brahmana. This will be the cause of everlasting prosperity.
