And the embryo is established during the fertile period. Just as seed cast into a well-plowed field results in vrīhi rice becoming vrīhi rice and barley becoming barley, even so, semen emitted at the fertile period into an unvitiated yoni reaches the womb. / Just as those caught in a whirlpool rush counter to the current, so the semen and blood poured into the womb are like milk; / and just as diverse gold poured together with an udumbara [crucible] becomes one, it attains development.
