*Mahājayāsaptamī*—When the Sun enters a Zodiacal sign on śu. 7th that tithi is called Mahājayāsaptamī, bath, japa, homa, worship of gods and Manes yield rewards a crore of times, if the image of the sun is bathed on that tithi with ghee or milk, the man goes to Sūryaloka, if a man fasts on it he goes to heaven; KKV 135-136 = HV I. 669 (from Bhav. I. 199. 1-7) KKV is, as often, silent about the source. HK 414 quotes all these from Brah., TT 145 does the same.
