Adhyaya 35 — Madālasa’s Instruction on Purity, Impurity, and Corrective Rites (Śauca and Aśauca)
सपिण्डानां सपिण्डस्तु मृते 'न्यस्मिन्मृतो यदि ।
पूर्वाशौचसमाख्यातैः कार्यास्त्वत्र दिनैः क्रियाः ॥
sapiṇḍānāṃ sapiṇḍas tu mṛte 'nyasmin mṛto yadi | pūrvāśauca-samākhyātaiḥ kāryās tv atra dinaiḥ kriyāḥ ||
सपिंड नात्यांमध्ये आधीचे आशौच चालू असताना जर दुसरा सपिंड मरण पावला, तर येथे सांगितलेले विधी पूर्व आशौचात मोजलेल्या दिवसांप्रमाणेच करावेत।

The system prevents endless disruption: overlapping deaths are handled by reference to an existing impurity-cycle, maintaining ritual coherence and social functionality.
Ācāra/dharma instruction embedded in the purāṇa.
Aśauca is treated like a single ‘field condition’; additional events within it do not create a new field but are absorbed into the existing liminal interval.
