Adhyaya 51 — Yaksha Injunctions: Graha-Children and Female Spirits Causing Domestic and Ritual Disruptions
धाताविधात्रोश्च बलिर्यत्र काले न दीयते ।
भुञ्जतां पिबतां वापि सङ्गिभिर्जलविप्रुषैः ॥
dhātā-vidhātroś ca balir yatra kāle na dīyate / bhuñjatāṃ pibatāṃ vāpi saṅgibhir jala-vipruṣaiḥ
ณ ที่ซึ่งมิได้ถวายบลี-ไนเวทยะแด่ธาตาและวิธาตาในกาลอันควร และที่ซึ่งผู้กินหรือผู้ดื่มถูกรบกวนด้วยละอองน้ำที่สาดจากสหายร่วมวง—ณ ที่นั้นเองอิทธิพลอัปมงคลอันเป็นโทษย่อมบังเกิดขึ้น।

Dhātā/Vidhātā represent cosmic ordering; failing to ‘offer’ acknowledges a break with order. Water-splashes during eating symbolize distraction and contamination of intake—what one ‘takes in’ shapes mind and fate.
