Adhyaya 50 — Mind-Born Progeny, Svayambhuva Manu’s Lineage, and Brahmā’s Ordinance to Duḥsaha (Alakṣmī’s Retinue)
यः संस्कृताशी विधिवच्छुचिरन्तस्तथा बहिः ।
अलोलुपो जितस्त्रीकस्तद्गेहमपवर्जय ॥
yaḥ saṃskṛtāśī vidhivac chucir antaḥ tathā bahiḥ | alolupo jitastrīkas tad geham apavarjaya ||
Iwasan mo ang bahay na yaon, na doo’y may lalaking kumakain ng pagkaing nalinis at inihandog ayon sa tuntunin, malinis sa loob at labas, hindi sakim, at nagwagi sa pagkakapit ng pita sa kababaihan.

A morally ordered household—clean, disciplined in food, and restrained—forms a protective sphere. The instruction implies that harmful or opportunistic beings find no ‘access’ where greed and lust are subdued.
Normative household ethics; ancillary to Purāṇic narrative rather than cosmological/genealogical material.
Inner/outer purity and regulated intake are markers of stabilized prāṇa; such stability is portrayed as repellent to disruptive subtle influences (here personified as the Yakṣa’s movement/entry).
