36. Those ancestors (pitṛ) who are revered by the Brahmins (dvija) have the radiance of a water lily and the moon. And those of the Kṣatriyas have the color of the newly risen sun. Similarly, those of the Vaiśyas are golden-white, and those of the Śūdra class (śūdra) resemble indigo.

37. May all those ancestors attain satisfaction here through this presentation of auspicious fragrances, incense, food, water, and so forth, made by me, and also through the fire sacrifice (agnihotra). I always bow to those ancestors (pitṛ).

38. May those divine ancestors, who accept auspiciously offered ancestral oblations for the sake of supreme gratification, and who, when satisfied, bestow prosperity, be pleased here. I offer my salutations to them.

39. May those (ancestors) who destroy demons, evil spirits, and fierce asuras, thus removing the inauspiciousness for beings, and who are the primeval among the gods, worshipped even by the lords of the immortals, be pleased here. I offer my salutations to them.

gaṇāḥ mahān mahātmā mahitaḥ mahimāvān mahābalaḥ
46. The protector of the universe and the sustainer - these are indeed the seven groups. As well, the Great, the great-souled (ātman), the honored, the glorious, and the greatly powerful ones [are described].
गणाः पञ्च तथैवैते पितॄणां पापनाशनाः ।

dhanadaḥ ca anyaḥ dharmadaḥ anyaḥ ca bhūtidaḥ
47. Indeed, these five groups of ancestors (pitṛ) are destroyers of sins. One grants happiness, another grants wealth, another grants natural law (dharma), and another grants prosperity.
पितॄणां कथ्यते चैतत्तथा गणचतुष्टयम् ।
एकत्रिंशत्पितृगणा यैर्व्याप्तमखिलं जगत् ॥४८॥

ekatriṃśat pitṛgaṇāḥ yaiḥ vyāptam akhilam jagat
48. And these four groups are spoken of in relation to the ancestors (pitṛ). There are thirty-one groups of ancestors (pitṛ) by whom the entire world is pervaded.
