ऊर्ध्व भवति संदेहादिह दृष्टार्थमेव च । अपेक्षापूर्वकरणात् प्रायश्षित्तं विधीयते
Translation
Aquí surge la duda, y también por un provecho visible en este mundo. Puesto que el acto infausto se realiza con intención y previa consideración, se prescribe el prāyaścitta —la expiación— para la remoción de su culpa.
