They acquire a plenteous store of food. they come united to the altar. Their rewards never lessen.<\/p>\n
Rig Veda VIII, 31, 6<\/p>\n
They do not wander from the Gods or seek to hide their favors granted. Thus they acquire great glory.<\/p>\n
Rig Veda VIII, 31, 7<\/p>\n
With sons and daughters at their side they live a good long span of years, both decked with precious gold.<\/p>\n
Rig Veda VIII, 31, 8<\/p>\n
Now, these are, verily, the three worlds: the world of men, the world of the Manes and the world of the gods. The world of men can be gained through a son only and by no other rite; the world of the Manes through rites; and the world of the gods through meditation. The world of the gods is the best of the worlds. Therefore they praise meditation.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad I, V-Manifestations of Prajapati, 16<\/p>\n
Now therefore follows the entrusting: When a man thinks he is about to die, he says to his son: You are Brahman, you are the sacrifice and you are the world. The son replies: I am Brahman, I am the sacrifice, I am the world. The Sruti explains the thoughts of the father: Whatever has been studied by me (the father) is all unified in the word Brahman. Whatever sacrifices have been made by me (the father) are all unified in the word sacrifice. And whatever worlds were to be; won by me (the father)are all unified in the word world. All this it indeed this much. He (the son), being all this, will protect me from the ties of this world. Therefore they speak of a son who is well instructed as being conducive to the winning of the world; and therefore a father instructs him.<\/p>\n
