The Greatness and Rite of the Sesame-Cow (Tiladhenu) Gift
श्रीकामं स्नापयेत् तद्वद् ऐन्द्रेण तु घटेन ह ॥ प्राज्यप्रतापकामं च आग्नेयेन तु स्नापयेत् ॥
śrīkāmaṃ snāpayet tadvad aindreṇa tu ghaṭena ha || prājyapratāpakāmaṃ ca āgneyena tu snāpayet ||
Sesiapa yang menginginkan sri dan kemakmuran hendaklah dimandikan dengan cara yang sama menggunakan tempayan air yang telah disucikan bagi Indra; dan sesiapa yang menginginkan sinar keagungan serta tenaga yang melimpah hendaklah dimandikan dengan tempayan yang disucikan bagi Agni.
