Let him perform it in this way:--when the Idâ of the cake-offering has been invoked, he should bring up the Dakshinâs; for to Indra belongs this vital air in the centre (of the body): by means of the Dakshinâs he thus strengthens this vital air in the centre (of the body); and to Indra also belongs the midday Soma-service, and at the midday-service the Dakshinâs are brought up: therefore. he should bring up the Dakshinâs after the invocation of the Idâ of the cake-offering.
