41. Then, that king of the gods (devarāṭ), being praised by the gods (devas) and sages (ṛṣis), became free from blemish (niṣkalmaṣa) and established in heaven (Triviṣṭapa). He then divided the sin of brahmin-slaughter (brahmavadhya) into four places: women, fire, plants (vanaspati), and cows. Thus, Indra, empowered by the efficacy of brahminical spiritual power (brahmatejas), having slain his enemy, was reinstated in his own position.
