Aditi’s Lament and Kaśyapa’s Instruction of the Payo-vrata (Milk Vow) to Please Keśava
पूजां च महतीं कुर्याद् वित्तशाठ्यविवर्जित: । चरुं निरूप्य पयसि शिपिविष्टाय विष्णवे ॥ ५१ ॥ सूक्तेन तेन पुरुषं यजेत सुसमाहित: । नैवेद्यं चातिगुणवद् दद्यात्पुरुषतुष्टिदम् ॥ ५२ ॥
pūjāṁ ca mahatīṁ kuryād vitta-śāṭhya-vivarjitaḥ caruṁ nirūpya payasi śipiviṣṭāya viṣṇave
財を惜しむ吝嗇を捨て、すべての生類の心に坐すシピヴィシュタなる主ヴィシュヌに、盛大な礼拝を行うべきである。深く専念して、ギーと乳で穀物を煮たチャル（供物）を整え、プルシャ・スークタを唱えて祭祀し、さらに多様な味のナイヴェーディヤを捧げて、至上のプルシャを満足させよ。
