He who offers when the sun has risen thus offers hospitality to the great god when gone on a journey. He who offers when the sun has not risen, thus offers hospitality to the great god when close at hand. Therefore the offering should be made when the sun has not risen. - [Previous: 2.p13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki~en-keith.2.p13) - [Next: 2.p15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki~en-keith.2.p15) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki~en-keith.2) ## Linked texts (1) - [Kauṣītakibrāhmaṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki.2.7.16) — Kauṣītaki, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki~en-keith.2.p14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki~en-keith.2.p14) · Pramāṇa
