Then a milch cow should be given away in charity to the preceptor who should then be dismissed with proper honors. Then the woman holding her child should salute the Sun and Śaṅkara and eat the remainder of the charu (Śâkalya), and then pronounce “Âdityâya namaḥ.” This is the way which should be followed to restore the peace of mind caused by evil dreams or calamities, &c.—35-36.
