(i.e.,
the period caused by the sun)
is
prajapati
and the two paths (of the snn) are southern (dakshna-
yan) and northern (uttarayan). Those who do sacrificial
or
charitable deeds they attains
ehanderloka
(or pleasures of this
world) and return taking birth over and over again, Hence
those rishis (sages) who desire for progeny (offspring) go by the
southern path solstice (dakshnayan), which is also called
pitra-
yana
or
rayee.
