3.205
daivādyantaṃ tad īheta pitrādyantaṃ na tad bhavet
pitrādyantaṃ tv īhamānaḥ kṣipraṃ naśyati sānvayaḥ //
Let him make (the Sraddha) begin and end with (a rite) in honour of the gods; it shall not begin and end with a (rite) to the manes; for he who makes it begin and end with a (rite) in honour of the manes, soon perishes together with his progeny.
