No one who is not a sacrificer of the provision should offer the Samnayya. For the milk of one who is not such a sacrificer is imperfect, and if he offers the Samnayya he does wrong, and his milk is poured forth in vain. Only one who performs the Soma sacrifice should offer the Samnayya. The provision is milk, the Samnayya is milk; thus with milk he places milk in himself. He should divide the rice grains into three parts; the mean size he should make into a cake on eight potsherds for the Radiant, the Giver, the largest he should give as a mess to the Mighty, the Bestower, the smallest he should give as a mess in boiled milk to the All-Pervading Cipivista. Thus the Radiant generates offspring for him; the Mighty gives increase; the All-Pervading is the sacrifice, and Cipi cattle; thus on the sacrifice and cattle he rests. He should not offer twice. If he were to offer now with the first he would make a failure with the second; if with the second now, he would make a failure with the first; for that cause a son is born shamefaced and retiring. One offering only should one make; a valiant son is born to him. One should disregard this and offer twice. With the first offering one grasps the mouth of the sacrifice, and sacrifices with the second. Thus one wins nearness to the angels with the first, power with the second; thus one attains the world of the angels with the first; the world of men with the second. This offering is called "the friendly"; for him there is in this world prosperity on whom the moon rises in the west after he has sacrificed on that day. One who desires heaven should sacrifice with the Dakshayana sacrifice. On the full moon he should offer the Samnayya; on the new moon he should sacrifice with clotted curds for the Friend and the All-Seeing. On the full moon the provision is pressed for the angels; during this half-month it is pressed forth for them, and a cow for the Friend and the All-Seeing is to be slaughtered at the new moon. In that he sacrifices on the day before, he makes the sacrificial enclosure. In that he drives away the calves, he metes out the seat and the oblation holder. In that he sacrifices, he produces with the angels the pressing day. In that he sacrifices at the new moon with clotted curds for the Friend and the All-Seeing, the cow which is slaughtered becomes his also. He mounts upon the angels in truth who mounts upon their sacrifice. If he misses the mark he becomes worse; if he does not, he remains the same. One who desires distinction should sacrifice with it, for this sacrifice has a razor edge, and swiftly he becomes holy or perishes. His vow is: he shall not speak untruth; he shall not eat meat; he shall not approach a woman; they shall not clean his raiment with cleansing stuff; for all these things the angels do not do.
