Varaha Purana 133.7 — Adhyaya 133, Shloka 7
Expiations for ritual-time impurity and the offense of defecation/urination in a sacred context
कर्म चैवं ततः कृत्वा स च मे नापराध्यति ॥ सर्वसङ्गं परित्यज्य मम लोकं स गच्छति ॥
karma caivaṃ tataḥ kṛtvā sa ca me nāparādhyati || sarvasaṅgaṃ parityajya mama lokaṃ sa gacchati ||
Kemudian setelah melaksanakan amalan itu demikian, dia tidak lagi melanggar ketetapan-Ku; meninggalkan segala keterikatan, dia pergi menuju loka-Ku (alam-Ku).
