Garuda Purana

अघौघसंक्षयं कृत्वा सर्वसौख्यप्रदो भव । प्रीयतां देवदेवेशो विप्रेभ्यः कलशान्ददेत् । नद्यस्तीरेऽयः वा कुर्यात्सर्वान्कामानवाप्नुयात् ॥ १,१३६.

Having destroyed the mass of sins, become the giver of all happiness; may the Lord of gods be pleased. One should give pots to the Brahmins; on the riverbank or in one's home, one may perform this and attain all desires.

श्रीगरुडमहापुराणम् १३७ ब्रह्मोवाच । कामदेवत्रयोदश्यां पूज्यो दमनकादिभिः । रतिप्रीतिसमायुक्तो ह्यसोको मणिभूषितः ॥ १,१३७.

Brahma said: On the thirteenth day dedicated to Kāma, he should be worshipped with damana and other flowers; adorned with jewels, Aśoka is accompanied by delight and affection.

(इति मदनकत्रयोदशीव्रतम्) । चतुर्दश्यां तथाष्टभ्यां पक्ष्योः शुक्लकृष्णयोः । योऽब्दमेकं न भुञ्जीत मुक्तिभाक्शिवपूजनात् ॥ १,१३७.

(Thus is the vow of Madanaka Trayodaśī.) On the fourteenth day and on both eighth days of the bright and dark fortnights, one who does not eat for a year, by worshipping Śiva, attains liberation.

(इति शिवचतुर्दश्यष्टमीव्रतम्) । त्रिरात्रोपोषितो दद्यात्कार्तिक्यां भवनं शुभम् । सूर्यलोकमवाप्नोति धामव्रतमिदं शुभम् ॥ १,१३७.

(Thus is the vow of Śiva Caturdaśī and Aṣṭamī.) One who fasts for three nights and gives a house during Kārtikī attains the world of the sun; this is the auspicious vow of light.

अमावस्यां पितॄणां च दत्तं जलादितदक्षयम् । नक्ताभ्याशी वारनाम्ना यजन्वाराणि सर्वभाक् ॥ १,१३७.

On the new moon, offerings of water and other items to the ancestors are inexhaustible; one who eats only at night, named after the days, and who worships on those days, receives all blessings.

(इति वारव्रतानि) । द्वादशर्क्षाणि विप्रर्षे ! प्रतिमासं तु यानि वै । तन्नाम्नान्तेऽतच्युतं तेषु सम्यक्संपूजयेन्नरः ॥ १,१३७.

O sage among the twice-born! The twelve zodiac signs, which occur each month—at the end of each by name, a man should duly worship Acyuta among them.

केशवं मार्गशीर्षे तु इत्यादौ कृतिकादिके (का) । घृतहोमश्चतुर्मासं कृसरञ्च निवेदयेत् ॥ १,१३७.

In Mārgaśīrṣa, one should worship Keśava, and so on, beginning with Kṛttikā; for four months, one should offer ghee into the fire and present kṛsara as food.

आषाढादौ पायसं तु विप्रांस्तेनैव भोजयेत् । पञ्चाव्यजलस्नाननैवेद्यैर्नक्तमाचरेत् ॥ १,१३७.

At the start of Āṣāḍha, one should offer pāyasa, and with that feed the brāhmaṇas; with fivefold offerings of water, bathing, and food, one should observe the night fast.

अर्वाग्विसर्जनाद्द्रव्यं नैवेद्यं सर्वमुच्यते । विसर्जिते जगन्नाथे निर्माल्यं भवति क्षणात् ॥ १,१३७.

All offerings made before the formal dismissal are considered naivedya; once the Lord of the universe is dismissed, the remainder instantly becomes nirmālya.

पाञ्चरात्रविदो मुख्या नैवेद्यं भुञ्जते स्वयम् । एवं संवत्सरस्यान्ते विशेषेण प्रपूजयेत् ॥ १,१३७.

The foremost knowers of the Pāñcarātra themselves partake of the naivedya; in this way, at the end of the year, one should worship with special devotion.

नमोनमस्तेऽच्युत ! संक्षयोऽस्तु पापस्य वृद्धिं समुपैतु पुण्यम् । ऐश्वर्यवित्तादि सदाक्षयं मे तथास्तु मे सन्ततिरक्षयैव ॥ १,१३७.

Salutations, salutations to you, Acyuta! May my sins be destroyed; may my merit ever increase; may my wealth and prosperity never diminish, and may my lineage remain unbroken.

यथाच्युत !त्वं परतः परस्मात्स ब्रह्मभूतः परतः परस्मात् । तथाच्युतं मे कुरु वाञ्छितं सदा मया कृतं पापहराप्रमेय ॥ १,१३७.

Just as you, O Acyuta, are beyond the beyond, the very essence of Brahman, so too, O immeasurable one, remover of sins, always fulfill my desires as I have worshipped you.

अच्युतानन्त ! गोविन्द ! प्रसीद यदभीप्सितम् । तदक्षयममेयात्मन्कुरुष्व पुरुषोत्तम ॥ १,१३७.

Acyuta! Ananta! Govinda! Be gracious—whatever is desired, O immeasurable self, O Supreme Person, grant that unfailing boon.

कुर्याद्वै सप्त वर्षाणि आयुः श्रीसद्गतीर्नरः । उपोष्यैकादशीब्दमष्टमीं च चतुर्दशीम् ॥ १,१३७.

A man who observes for seven years, fasting on Ekādaśī, Aṣṭamī, and Caturdaśī, attains long life, prosperity, and the highest state.

सप्तमीं पूजयेद्विष्णुं दुर्गां शम्बुं रविं क्रमात् । तेषां लोकं समाप्नोति सर्वकामांश्च निर्मलः ॥ १,१३७.

On the seventh day, one should worship Viṣṇu, Durgā, Śambhu, and the Sun in order; he attains their realms, all pure desires, and purity.

एकभक्तेन नक्तेन तथैवायाचितेन च । उपवासेन शाकाद्यैः पूजयन्तसर्वदेवताः ॥ १,१३७.

By worshipping all the deities with single-minded devotion, with night-fasting, with food obtained by alms, or with vegetables and the like, one is blessed.

सर्वः सर्वासु तिथिषु भुक्तिं मुक्तिमवाप्नुयात् । धनदोऽग्निः प्रतिपदि नासत्यो दस्त्र अर्चितः ॥ १,१३७.

Whoever observes all these fasts on all lunar days attains both enjoyment and liberation; on the first day, Kubera and Agni are worshipped, and the Aśvins as well.

श्रीर्यमश्च द्वितीयायां पञ्चम्या पार्वती श्रिया । नागाः षष्ठ्यां कार्तिकेयः सप्तम्यां भास्करोर्ऽथदः ॥ १,१३७.

On the second day, Lakṣmī and Yama; on the fifth, Pārvatī and Śrī; on the sixth, the Nāgas; on the seventh, Kārttikeya and the Sun, bestower of wealth.

दुर्गाष्टम्यां मातरश्च नवम्यामथ तक्षकः । इन्द्रो दशम्यां धनद एकादश्यां मुनीश्वराः ॥ १,१३७.

On Durgāṣṭamī, Durgā and the Mothers; on the ninth, Takṣaka; on the tenth, Indra; on the eleventh, Kubera and the great sages.

द्वादश्यां च हरिः कामस्त्रयोदश्यां महेश्वरः । चतुर्दश्यां पञ्चदश्यां ब्रह्मा च पितरोऽपरे ॥ १,१३७.

On the twelfth, Hari; on the thirteenth, Kāma and Maheśvara; on the fourteenth and fifteenth, Brahmā and the other ancestors.

श्रीगरुडमहापुराणम् १३८ (इति व्रतानि समाप्तानि) । हरिरुवाच । राज्ञां वंशान्प्रवक्ष्यामि वंशानुचरितानि च । विष्णुनाभ्यब्जतो ब्रह्मा दक्षोऽङ्गुष्ठाच्च तस्य वै ॥ १,१३८.

The great Garuḍa Purāṇa, 138. Thus the vows are completed. Hari said: I shall declare the lineages of kings and their histories; from Viṣṇu's navel came Brahmā, and from his thumb, Dakṣa.

ततोऽपितर्विवस्वांश्च ततः सूनुर्विवस्वतः मनुरिक्ष्वाकुशर्याती नृगो धृष्टः प्रषध्रकः ॥ १,१३८.

From him came the fathers, and from them Vivasvān; from Vivasvān's son came Manu, Ikṣvāku, Śaryāti, Nṛga, Dhṛṣṭa, and Praṣadhra.

नरिष्यन्तश्च नाभागो दिष्टः शशक एव च । मनोरासीदिला कन्या सुद्युम्नोऽस्य सुतोऽभवत् ॥ १,१३८.

Nariṣyanta, Nābhāga, Diṣṭa, and Śaśaka as well; Manu had a daughter named Ilā, and her son was Sudyumna.

इलायां तु बुधाज्जातो राजा रुद्र पुरूरवाः । सुतास्त्रयश्च सुद्युम्नादुत्कलो विनतो गयः ॥ १,१३८.

From Budha and Ilā was born the king Purūravas, son of Rudra; and from Sudyumna came three sons: Utkala, Vinata, and Gaya.

अभृच्छ्रद्रो गोवधात्तु पृषध्रस्तु मनोः सुतः । करूषात्क्षत्त्रिया जाता कारूषा इति विश्रुताः ॥ १,१३८.
