Later Vedic Grihyasutras prescribe five mandatory daily sacrifices known as 'Pancha-Mahayajnas' for every household practitioner (Grihastha). Which of the following selections represents an INCORRECT assignment within this ritual framework?

Question

Accepted Answer

The assignment in Option A is completely fabricated and incorrect. The official Pancha-Mahayajnas are: Brahma-yajna (to sages), Deva-yajna (to gods), Pitru-yajna (to ancestors), Manushya/Nriyajna (to guests), and Bhuta-yajna (to all animals/spirits). There is absolutely no entity called Asura-yajna within Vedic theology.
