Note 86 — Chapter II · HEROIC GODLINGS
Reading edition
After these ceremonies, the villagers are at liberty to build their own houses within the new settlement. When the houses are complete and ready for habitation, it is necessary to perform the ceremony known as vāstun (or graha-shānti) for the propitiation of the nine planets. Both the day of installing the gods and the day of vāstun ceremony, are observed as festivals, at which Brahmans are feasted, and lāpsi, churmu and kansār are offered to the gods.86
