* It is said that, for a rite sacred to the deities, one need not make detailed inquiries regarding an invited brahmana; however, in a ceremony in honour of the forefathers, one must carefully examine the invited guest. Incase, the father is ignorant of the sacred texts but son has learnt vedas and similarly, when a son is ignorant of the vedas but the father is well versed in the same, know that, he whose father knows the veda, is venerable while the other is worthy of honour too (Manu 3.149, 136 and 137).<ref name=":1" />

* One should not feed a friend at a funeral sacrifice; one should feed a brahmana who is neither a foe nor a friend. For, the fruits of feeding only friends in funeral sacrifices and [[Yagya (यज्ञ)|Yajnas]] (यज्ञ-s), is not rewarded in the other world. In fact, the ignorant one who builds friendships through a funeral sacrifice, doesn't obtain heaven. And the shraddha food offered to friends is called as 'Paishachi Dakshina' (पैशाची-दक्षिणा) which like a alone blind cow staying in the same stable, remains in this world (Manu Smrt. 3.138, 139, 140 and 141).<ref name=":1" />
