Pero cuando se transgreden las observancias prescritas, se come lo prohibido o se pronuncia lo que no debe decirse, se afirma que la purificación se alcanza mediante una expiación de mil veces, para que el paśu (alma atada) recobre aptitud para el culto de Śiva y el sendero hacia la liberación bajo el Pati (Señor).
