चंडाधिकारो यत्रास्ति तद्भोक्तव्यं न मानवैः । चंडाधिकारो नो यत्र भोक्तव्यं तच्च भक्तितः १६ ।

sanskrit

Where there is the presence of Chanda Adhikara (a specific ritualistic power or authority), the offerings should not be consumed by humans. But where there is no such Chanda Adhikara, the offerings can be consumed with devotion.
