Adhyaya 35 — Madālasa’s Instruction on Purity, Impurity, and Corrective Rites (Śauca and Aśauca)
आसनं शयनं यानं नावः पथि तृणानि च ।
सोमसूर्यांशुपवनैः शुध्यन्ते तानि पण्यवत् ॥
āsanaṃ śayanaṃ yānaṃ nāvaḥ pathi tṛṇāni ca | soma-sūryāṃśu-pavanaiḥ śudhyante tāni paṇya-vat ||
ആസനങ്ങൾ, ശയ്യകൾ, വാഹനങ്ങൾ, നൗകകൾ, വഴിയിലെ പുല്ലും—ചന്ദ്രപ്രകാശം, സൂര്യപ്രകാശം, വായു എന്നിവകൊണ്ട്—ഉപയോഗത്തിനായി വെച്ച ചരക്കുപോലെ—ശുദ്ധമാകുന്നു।
