एकान्नाशनकृन्मर्त्यो न रोगैरभि भूयते । अक्षारलवणाशी च चातुर्मास्ये न पापभाक्
ekānnāśanakṛnmartyo na rogairabhi bhūyate | akṣāralavaṇāśī ca cāturmāsye na pāpabhāk
Người phàm chỉ ăn một lần mỗi ngày thì không bị bệnh tật lấn át; và ai trong mùa Cāturmāsya tránh các món có tính kiềm và mặn thì không trở thành kẻ thọ phần tội lỗi.
Skanda (deduced from Nāgarakhaṇḍa māhātmya-style instruction)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A pilgrim-devotee at a simple hermitage/temple courtyard takes a single modest meal; nearby are jars of salt and alkaline substances set aside, symbolizing renunciation; the body appears calm and healthy.
Daily discipline in eating is presented as both bodily protection and moral purification during the sacred four months.
No single tīrtha is named in this verse; the focus is on Cāturmāsya observance within the māhātmya framework.
Ekānnāśana (one meal per day) and abstaining from kṣāra (alkaline preparations) and lavaṇa (salt) during Cāturmāsya.
