⁹⁵⁵ असमर्थोऽन्नदानस्य धान्यं मांसं स्वशक्तितः। ... सर्वाभावे वनं गत्वा कक्षमूलप्रदर्शकः। सूर्यादिलोकपालानामिदमुच्चैः पठिष्यति॥ न मेऽस्ति वित्तं न धनं न चान्यच्छ्राद्धस्य योग्यं स्वपितृन्नतोऽस्मि। तृप्यन्तु भक्त्या पितरो मयैतौ भुजौ ततौ वर्त्मनि मारुतस्य॥ वराहपुराण 13. 57-58 = विष्णुपुराण III. 14. 29-30, q by मद. पा pp. 515-16 from विष्णु and by निर्णयसिन्धु III p. 467 from both This passage explains the origin and the present meaning of the Marathi phrase खाका वर करणें बृहत्पराशर (chap. 5 p 152) has similar provisions. The पृथ्वी० (folio 56 b) notes 'धान्यं मासामित्यत्र वन्यं शाकमिति वराहपुराणीयः पाठ '; in the printed विष्णुपुराण the reading is not धान्यं मांसं, but the निर्णयसिन्धु had these words and it appears that the text was tampered with in modern times.
