Adhyaya 35 — Madālasa’s Instruction on Purity, Impurity, and Corrective Rites (Śauca and Aśauca)
न चालपेज्जनद्विष्टां वीरहीनां तथा स्त्रियम् । गृहादुच्छिष्टविण्मूत्रपादाम्भांसि क्षिपेद्वहिः ॥
na cālapen janadviṣṭāṃ vīrahīnāṃ tathā striyam / gṛhād ucchiṣṭaviṇmūtrapādāmbhāṃsi kṣiped bahiḥ
لا ينبغي أن يُحادِث المرء امرأةً يمقتها الناس، ولا امرأةً بلا حمايةٍ أو سند. وعليه أن يُخرج خارج البيت بقايا الطعام، والغائط، والبول، والماء الذي استُعمل لغسل القدمين.
