²¹²¹ If he has followed the *ardhādhāna* mode, then he has separate śrauta and gṛhya fires; but if he has followed the 'sarvādhāna' mode, then he has only śrauta fires, which alone he takes with him. When a man consecrates the three śrauta fires he may do so with half of his smārta fire and keep the other half of the smārta fire. This is ardhādhāna. If he does not keep the *smārta* fire separate it is sarvādhāna. Vide Āp. Śr. V. 4. 12-16, V. 7. 8 and Nirṇayasindhu (III pūrvārdha, p. 370). If he has no śrauta fires then he takes only the gṛhya fire. One who has no wife living can also become a forest hermit. Vide Mit. on Yāj. III. 45. Dākṣāyaṇa is 'a modification of the Darśapūrṇamāsa sacrifice (Āp. Śr. III. 17. 4 and 11, Āśv. Śr. II. 14. 7ff and com. on Kāt. Śr. I. 2. 11) and Turāyaṇa is an iṣṭyayana according to Āśv. Śr. II. 14. 4-6 and a sattra according to Āp. XXIII. 14. 1.
