Garuḍa Mahāpurāṇa—Chapter 43
Śrī Viṣṇu said:
Those who have fallen by water, fire, or hanging, or who have lapsed from mendicancy or a death-fast, / are purified by two Cāndrāyaṇa penances after giving a cow and a bull.
2.43.2
ūnadvādaśavarṣasya caturvarṣādhikasya ca /
prāyaścittaṃ carenmātā pitā vānyo 'pi bāndhavaḥ //
For a child under twelve years of age and over four years old, / the mother, father, or another kinsman shall perform the penance.
2.43.3
ato bālanarasyāpi nāparādho na pātakam /
rājadaṇḍo na tasyāsti prāyaścittaṃ na vidyate //
For this reason, a child has neither fault nor sin; / he has no royal punishment, and no penance is prescribed for him.
2.43.4
raktasya darśane daṣṭe āturā strī bhaved yadi /
caturthe 'hni padādīṃśca tyaktvā snātvā viśudhyati //
If a woman becomes sick at the sight of blood [or] when bitten [by a snake], / on the fourth day, abandoning [her cloth covering] the feet and other parts, she is purified after bathing.
2.43.5
āture snāna utpanne daśakṛtvo hyanāturaḥ /
snātvāsnātvāspṛśedenaṃ tataḥ śudhyet sa āturaḥ //
When a bath is required for a sick person, an healthy person, / bathing ten times and touching him each time, thereby purifies that sick person.
