अष्टम्यां च चतुर्दश्यां तृतीयायां विशेषतः । स्नानं समाचरेत्तत्र न चेह जायते पुनः
aṣṭamyāṃ ca caturdaśyāṃ tṛtīyāyāṃ viśeṣataḥ | snānaṃ samācarettatra na ceha jāyate punaḥ
Đặc biệt vào tithi thứ tám, thứ mười bốn, và nhất là tithi thứ ba, hãy tắm gội tại đó; rồi người ấy sẽ không còn tái sinh nơi cõi này nữa.
