Likewise, taking seeds of bhallātaka and crushing them to the capacity of a jar, placing them in a sturdy jar impregnated with oil, perforated with many small holes at the bottom, wrapped around the body, and smeared with clay, covering it with a lid, mounting it on top of another sturdy pot also impregnated with oil and buried in the ground up to its neck, heaping cow dung around it, he should burn it; when he knows that the cow dung is completely burned and the seeds of bhallātaka are devoid of oil, he should then lift that pot off.
