a body. Why? "Because this is observed, i.e. because it is found in
the text: '“Be born and die”',—thus is this third place" (Chānd.
5.10.8) that bodies are attained—even independently of the fifth
oblation—by those who have entered into the third place. The sense
is that those who perform sacrifices and the rest attain bodies in this
world through the successive order, beginning with reverence, moon
and so on; and in the case of their attaining bodies, there is a restriction
with regard to number, viz "In the fifth oblation water comes to have
the speech of man" (Chānd. 5.9.1) But in the case of those who do
not perform sacrifices and so on, bodies are generated from water,
intermixed with other elements, even without any restriction with
regard to the number of oblations,—and not from water which
comes in the order of reverence and the rest. By the text: "In the
fifth oblation water comes to have the speech of a man" (Chānd 5.9.1),
it is proved simply that in the fifth oblation water comes to be denotable
by the word 'man', but it is not denied that it cannot come to have
the speech of a man in any other way. There is also the absence
of any limitation of the kind: 'In the fifth oblation alone water comes
to have the speech of a man'

SŪTRA 19
“AND MOREOVER (THIS IS) DECLARED BY SMṚTI IN ORDINARY
LIFE.”
Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha
It is “declared by Smṛti” in the passage “He was born from fire
for the destruction of Drona, so it has been heard by us”, and so on,
that the bodies of even those who performed sacrifices and the
rest, like Dhṛṣṭadyumna and so on, originated even without the
fifth oblation.
Vedānta-kaustubha
In the Mahā-bhārata and the rest it is mentioned that the bodies
of even pious workers, like Dhṛṣṭadyumna and so on, originated
independently of the fifth oblation. It is declared by Smṛti too:
“There arose, from that fire, a god-like prince” (Mahā. 1.63936 ¹),
