The havya of Yajña results in benefiting

  • A.Ṛtvik
  • B.Consumer of the havya
  • C.Devatā
  • D.None of these

Answer: B

According to the official key, the havya, the oblation offered in a Vedic sacrifice, results in benefiting the consumer of the havya, that is, the person who offers the sacrifice and enjoys its fruit, the yajamana. The priest (Rtvik) performs the rite for a fee and does not receive its result, and the deity (Devata) is the recipient of the offering but not the beneficiary in the sense of the fruit. The answer is Consumer of the havya, as the key states, and 'None of these' is wrong because one listed option fits.
