Translation
No décimo quarto dia lunar de ambas as quinzenas, deve-se observar o voto com jejum; e, no dia de lua cheia, deve-se oferecer a Rudra uma manta de lã ungida com ghee. Esse dāna purifica o paśu (alma vinculada) e sustenta o culto a Śiva que conduz à libertação do pāśa (cativeiro) sob a graça de Pati (o Senhor).
