From far off one should examine the 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺 thoroughly versed in the Veda; such a one is the proper channel for offerings to gods and Pit峁� and in the matter of gifts he has been declared to be the guest.鈥�(130)

 

Medh膩tithi鈥檚 commentary (尘补苍耻产丑腻峁�y补):

One is not to be fed simply because he is thoroughly versed in the Veda; in fact, he should be examined 鈥�from far off;鈥� i.e., one should carefully ascertain the purity of his father鈥檚 and mother鈥檚 families. It has been declared that persons should be regarded as real 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺a on both sides, only when it is found that everyone of their ancestors on the father鈥檚 and on the mother鈥檚 side up to ten degrees were accomplished in learning and austerities and their acts were virtuous; this is what constitutes 鈥榚xamination from far off;鈥� similarly, the man鈥檚 own learning and knowledge of practical details should be ascertained.

鈥�V别诲补辫腻谤补驳补岣�鈥欌�攈e who has gone to the end of the Veda; i.e., one does not become respected by reading the 厂补峁僪颈迟腻 only, or the 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺 only. Because we find this term used here, we conclude that the term 鈥�艣谤辞迟谤颈测补鈥� is applied to one who may have learnt only a portion of the Veda.

鈥�Such a one is the channel for offerings to gods and Pit峁泂;鈥欌赌斺赌�channel鈥� means like a channel. The 鈥榗hannel鈥� is that whereby people descend to the water; hence what is meant by the metaphor is the eulogium that 鈥榡ust as people seeking water get it only if they go to it by the right channel, similarly, the offerings reach the gods and ancestors only through the aforesaid 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺.鈥�

In connection with gifts and charities also the 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺 is the 鈥榞uest.鈥� To the guest that arrives by himself, gifts are offered freely, and thus given, they bring about great results; and, in the same manner, to the said 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺 the offerings to gods and ancestors should be given freely; and when thus given, they become conducive to great results.鈥�(130)

 

Explanatory notes by Ganganath Jha

This verse is quoted in 惭补诲补苍补辫腻谤颈箩腻迟补 (p. 356), which explains 鈥�诲奴谤腻迟 par墨k峁Ｄ�鈥� as 鈥榠nvestigation regarding his ancestors and character鈥�; and 鈥�辫谤补诲腻苍别鈥� as 鈥榠n the matter of other gifts also鈥� he should be honoured like a guest;鈥攊n 础辫补谤腻谤办补, (p. 437), which explains 鈥�诲奴谤腻迟 par墨k峁Ｄ�鈥� as 鈥榠nvestigation regarding his father and several degrees of ancestors,鈥欌�斺��迟墨谤迟丑补尘鈥� as 鈥榯he way for the running of water,鈥� the implication being 鈥榡ust as water runs smoothly along its path, so do the offerings easily reach the Pit峁泂, through the qualified 叠谤腻丑尘补峁嘺s鈥�;鈥攖he man is called 鈥�atithi鈥� in the sense that he is of immense help to the Householder;鈥攁nd in 艢谤腻诲诲丑补办谤颈测腻办补耻尘耻诲墨 (p. 34), which explains 鈥�诲奴谤腻迟鈥� as 鈥榠n regard to their remote ancestry,鈥� and 鈥�迟墨谤迟丑补鈥� as 鈥榝it recipient.鈥�
