54 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 10, Ch. 7
TRANSLATION
After the strong, stout cowherd men assembled the pots and
paraphernalia on the handcart and set it up as before, the
brahmanas performed a ritualistic ceremony with a fire sacrifice to
appease the bad planet, and then, with rice grains, kuéa, water and
curd, they worshiped the Supreme Lord.
PURPORT
The handcart was loaded with heavy utensils and other paraphernalia.
To set the cart back in its original position required much strength, but
this was easily done by the cowherd men. Then, according to the system
of the gopa-jati, various Vedic ceremonies were performed to appease the
calamitous situation.
