iti kathitamidānīmutsavānandahetoḥ sakalakaluṣahārī devayajñābhiṣekaḥ
paripaṭhati ya itthaṃ yaḥ śṛṇoti prasaṅgād abhibhavati sa śatrūnāyurārogyayuktaḥ //

Thus I have told the mode of the sacrifices of the Nine Grahas and the Abhiṣeka in divine sacrifices (the sprinkling of the devotee with the holy waters.) These are to be done to dispel all ills and hindrances to ceremonies of rejoicings. These purge all sins. One who reads or listens to it subdues all his foes and gets longevity and health.—161.
