It is therefore very fruitful to feed the yogîs at the time of performing a funeral ceremony in honour of the departed spirits.—(5-6). > — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, The Matsya Puranam - [Previous: 13.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.5) - [Next: 13.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.7) - [Up: 13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13) ## Translations (2) - [The Matsya Puranam](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-taluqdar.13.p4) — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-mt.13.6) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [Padmapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.padma.1.9.6) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.6) · Pramāṇa
