It is generally observed that one does aupAsana
and agnihotra daily, and the rest, at least once
in a life time.
During vivAha, the first smArta yajna, namely,
sthAlI pAka, and the first srauta yajna, agni
AdhAna are initiated. Among the 21 yajnas, the
seven pAka yajnas are done in smArta agni and
the remaining 14 are done in srauta agni, till
death or till becoming a sannyAsI!

8.PuJOPauspiciousness / DQ1Gw
Absolute DQ1Gw requires Atma-jnAnam. But one
can get relative quietitude through the practice
of these. When a person is endowed with the
above AtmaguNas, he becomes an adhikArI
the eligible for vedAnta and for the ultimate
knowledge. Endowed with the Knowledge, the
person has no worry about next life, krama
muktI, svarga loka etc. Such a person is pUrNa:
and lives with the awareness aham brahma
asmi. Thus the samskAras lead to AtmaguNas
which give adhikAritvam to gain Knowledge
which gives liberation moksha. If a person
does not get the AtmaguNas in this life, with
the antyeshTi samskAra, it is hoped that one
will get them in the next life!!
