Pūjādi-kathana — Gaṅgā Vratas, Tenfold Worship, Stotra, and Mokṣa on the Riverbank
अदत्तानामुपादानं हिंसा चैवाविधानतः । परदारोपसेवा च कायिकं त्रिविधं स्मृतम् ॥ ६१ ॥
adattānāmupādānaṃ hiṃsā caivāvidhānataḥ | paradāropasevā ca kāyikaṃ trividhaṃ smṛtam || 61 ||
தரப்படாததை எடுத்தல், விதிக்குப் புறம்பாக வன்முறை செய்தல், மற்றும் பிறருடைய மனைவியுடன் உறவு கொள்வது—இவை உடலின் மூவகைப் பாவங்கள் என நினைக்கப்படுகின்றன.

It defines the core bodily transgressions that bind a person to negative karma—stealing, wrongful violence, and adultery—thereby outlining essential restraints (yamas) for dharmic life.
Bhakti is supported by purity of conduct; by avoiding these bodily sins, a devotee preserves inner clarity and steadiness needed for sincere worship and remembrance of the Lord.
The verse relies on vidhi/niṣedha (scriptural injunctions and prohibitions), a practical application often clarified through Mimamsa-style dharma reasoning and Smriti-based conduct rules rather than a technical Vedanga like Jyotisha.
