The Glory and Procedure of the Grain-Cow (Dhānyadhenu) Donation
कृष्णाजिनं ततः कृत्वा प्राग्वत्सं स्थापयेद्बुधः । गोमयेनानुलिप्तायां भूमौ तां परिपूजयेत् ॥
kṛṣṇājinaṃ tataḥ kṛtvā prāg-vatsaṃ sthāpayet budhaḥ | gomayenānuliptāyāṃ bhūmau tāṃ paripūjayet ||
తర్వాత కృష్ణాజినాన్ని సిద్ధం చేసి, జ్ఞాని వత్సాన్ని తూర్పుముఖంగా స్థాపించాలి. గోమయంతో లేపిన భూమిపై దానిని విధివిధానంగా పూజించాలి.
