After thus invoking all Devas and other beings, the devotee should sprinkle upon himself the water of those medicated pitchers, which are adorned with white garlands and sandal paste, and then worship the Brâhmaṇas and the family Deity by reciting the mantras laid down in the Rig, Sâma and Yajur Vedas, and then give away a cow, along with cloth to the Brâhmaṇas.—17.
