Verse 3.56.37

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
देशकालक्रियाद्रव्यसंपत्त्योदेति भावना ।
यत्रैवाभ्युदिता सा स्यात्स द्वयोरधिको जयी ॥ ३७ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
deśakālakriyādravyasaṃpattyodeti bhāvanā |
yatraivābhyuditā sā syātsa dvayoradhiko jayī || 37 ||

Vasishtha said:—A desire is naturally raised in one at its proper time and place, and by application of appropriate acts and means; and the rising of the desire necessarily overcomes its absence. Gloss. So a Sradh done in proper season and manner, serves to the benefit of the desertless spirit.
