33. sāvitrīm api adhīyānaḥ śucau deśe mitāśanaḥ
ahiṃsraḥ amandakaḥ ajalpan sarvakilbiṣaiḥ mucyate
33. A person who, even while reciting the Sāvitrī (mantra), stays in a clean place, eats moderately, is non-violent, diligent, and does not chatter, is liberated (mokṣa) from all sins.
अहःसु सततं तिष्ठेदभ्याकाशं निशि स्वपेत् ।
त्रिरह्नस्त्रिर्निशायाश्च सवासा जलमाविशेत् ॥३४॥
34. ahaḥsu satataṁ tiṣṭhedabhyākāśaṁ niśi svapet ,

34. ahaḥsu satatam abhyākāśam tiṣṭhet niśi svapet

34. One should always remain standing under the open sky during the day and sleep there at night. Thrice during the day and thrice at night, one should enter the water fully clothed.
स्त्रीशूद्रपतितांश्चापि नाभिभाषेद्व्रतान्वितः ।
पापान्यज्ञानतः कृत्वा मुच्येदेवंव्रतो द्विजः ॥३५॥
35. strīśūdrapatitāṁścāpi nābhibhāṣedvratānvitaḥ ,
pāpānyajñānataḥ kṛtvā mucyedevaṁvrato dvijaḥ.
35. strī śūdra patitān ca api na abhibhāṣet vratānvitaḥ

35. evaṃvrataḥ dvijaḥ vratānvitaḥ strī śūdra patitān ca
api na abhibhāṣet ajñānataḥ pāpāni kṛtvā mucyeta
35. A twice-born (dvija) who is observing such a vow should not speak to women, śūdras, or outcasts. By doing so, even if they have committed sins unknowingly, such a person is liberated (mokṣa).
शुभाशुभफलं प्रेत्य लभते भूतसाक्षिकः ।
अतिरिच्येत्तयोर्यत्तु तत्कर्ता लभते फलम् ॥३६॥
36. śubhāśubhaphalaṁ pretya labhate bhūtasākṣikaḥ ,

36. śubhāśubhaphalam pretya labhate bhūtasākṣikaḥ
atiricyeta tayoḥ yat tu tatkartā labhate phalam
36. pretya bhūtasākṣikaḥ śubhāśubhaphalam labhate
tu tayoḥ yat atiricyeta tatkartā phalam labhate
36. After death, the one whose actions are witnessed by all beings (bhūta) receives the fruits of both auspicious and inauspicious deeds. Whatever surplus there may be of those two (fruits), its performer obtains that fruit.
तस्माद्दानेन तपसा कर्मणा च शुभं फलम् ।
वर्धयेदशुभं कृत्वा यथा स्यादतिरेकवान् ॥३७॥
37. tasmāddānena tapasā karmaṇā ca śubhaṁ phalam ,

37. tasmāt dānena tapasā karmaṇā ca śubham phalam
vardhayet aśubham kṛtvā yathā syāt atirekavān
37. aśubham kṛtvā tasmāt dānena tapasā karmaṇā ca
śubham phalam vardhayet yathā atirekavān syāt
37. Therefore, having committed an inauspicious act, one should increase the good results through charity (dāna), austerity (tapas), and (good) actions (karma), so that the good may become abundant.
कुर्याच्छुभानि कर्माणि निमित्ते पापकर्मणाम् ।
दद्यान्नित्यं च वित्तानि तथा मुच्येत किल्बिषात् ॥३८॥
38. kuryācchubhāni karmāṇi nimitte pāpakarmaṇām ,
dadyānnityaṁ ca vittāni tathā mucyeta kilbiṣāt.
38. kuryāt śubhāni karmāṇi nimitte pāpakarmaṇām
dadyāt nityam ca vittāni tathā mucyeta kilbiṣāt
38. pāpakarmaṇām nimitte śubhāni karmāṇi kuryāt
nityam vittāni ca dadyāt tathā kilbiṣāt mucyeta
38. One should perform good actions (karma) as a remedy for sinful deeds. One should also constantly give wealth (dāna), and thus one would be liberated (mokṣa) from sin.
अनुरूपं हि पापस्य प्रायश्चित्तमुदाहृतम् ।
महापातकवर्जं तु प्रायश्चित्तं विधीयते ॥३९॥
39. anurūpaṁ hi pāpasya prāyaścittamudāhṛtam ,
mahāpātakavarjaṁ tu prāyaścittaṁ vidhīyate.
39. anurūpam hi pāpasya prāyaścittam udāhṛtam
mahāpātakavarjam tu prāyaścittam vidhīyate
39. pāpasya anurūpam prāyaścittam hi udāhṛtam
mahāpātakavarjam tu prāyaścittam vidhīyate
39. Indeed, expiation (prāyaścitta) is declared to be commensurate with the sin. However, this expiation (prāyaścitta) is prescribed for sins, excluding the most heinous offenses (mahāpātaka).
भक्ष्याभक्ष्येषु सर्वेषु वाच्यावाच्ये तथैव च ।
अज्ञानज्ञानयो राजन्विहितान्यनुजानते ॥४०॥
40. bhakṣyābhakṣyeṣu sarveṣu vācyāvācye tathaiva ca ,
ajñānajñānayo rājanvihitānyanujānate.
40. bhakṣyābhakṣyeṣu sarveṣu vācyāvācye tathaiva
ca ajñānajñānayoḥ rājan vihitāni anujānate
40. rājan sarveṣu bhakṣyābhakṣyeṣu vācyāvācye
tathaiva ca ajñānajñānayoḥ vihitāni anujānate
40. O King, concerning all that is eatable and uneatable, speakable and unspeakable, and concerning matters of ignorance and knowledge, (the wise) acknowledge what is prescribed (by natural law/scriptures).
जानता तु कृतं पापं गुरु सर्वं भवत्युत ।
अज्ञानात्स्खलिते दोषे प्रायश्चित्तं विधीयते ॥४१॥
41. jānatā tu kṛtaṁ pāpaṁ guru sarvaṁ bhavatyuta ,
ajñānātskhalite doṣe prāyaścittaṁ vidhīyate.
41. jānatā tu kṛtam pāpam guru sarvam bhavati uta
ajñānāt skhalite doṣe prāyaścittam vidhīyate
41. jānatā kṛtam pāpam tu sarvam guru bhavati uta
ajñānāt skhalite doṣe prāyaścittam vidhīyate
41. However, a sin (pāpam) committed knowingly becomes entirely grave. But for a fault that occurs out of ignorance, atonement (prāyaścitta) is prescribed.
शक्यते विधिना पापं यथोक्तेन व्यपोहितुम् ।
आस्तिके श्रद्दधाने तु विधिरेष विधीयते ॥४२॥
42. śakyate vidhinā pāpaṁ yathoktena vyapohitum ,
āstike śraddadhāne tu vidhireṣa vidhīyate.
42. śakyate vidhinā pāpam yathā uktena vyapohitum
āstike śraddadhāne tu vidhiḥ eṣa vidhīyate
42. pāpam yathā uktena vidhinā vyapohitum śakyate
tu eṣa vidhiḥ āstike śraddadhāne vidhīyate
42. Sin (pāpam) can be removed by the prescribed method. However, this method is enjoined for a faithful (śraddhā) and pious person.
नास्तिकाश्रद्दधानेषु पुरुषेषु कदाचन ।
दम्भदोषप्रधानेषु विधिरेष न दृश्यते ॥४३॥
43. nāstikāśraddadhāneṣu puruṣeṣu kadācana ,
dambhadoṣapradhāneṣu vidhireṣa na dṛśyate.
43. nāstikāśraddadhāneṣu puruṣeṣu kadācana
dambhadoṣapradhāneṣu vidhiḥ eṣa na dṛśyate
43. eṣa vidhiḥ nāstikāśraddadhāneṣu
dambhadoṣapradhāneṣu puruṣeṣu kadācana na dṛśyate
43. This method is never seen among men (puruṣa) who are atheistic, devoid of faith (śraddhā), and primarily governed by hypocrisy and faults.
शिष्टाचारश्च शिष्टश्च धर्मो धर्मभृतां वर ।
सेवितव्यो नरव्याघ्र प्रेत्य चेह सुखार्थिना ॥४४॥
44. śiṣṭācāraśca śiṣṭaśca dharmo dharmabhṛtāṁ vara ,
sevitavyo naravyāghra pretya ceha sukhārthinā.
44. śiṣṭācāraḥ ca śiṣṭaḥ ca dharmaḥ dharmabhṛtām vara
sevitavyaḥ naravyāghra pretya ca iha sukhārthinā
44. dharmabhṛtām vara naravyāghra śiṣṭācāraḥ ca śiṣṭaḥ
ca dharmaḥ pretya ca iha sukhārthinā sevitavyaḥ
44. O best among the upholders of natural law (dharma), O tiger among men (naravyāghra), both the virtuous conduct and the virtuous person himself are to be followed by one who desires happiness (sukha) both in this world and after death.
स राजन्मोक्ष्यसे पापात्तेन पूर्वेण हेतुना ।
त्राणार्थं वा वधेनैषामथ वा नृपकर्मणा ॥४५॥
45. sa rājanmokṣyase pāpāttena pūrveṇa hetunā ,
trāṇārthaṁ vā vadhenaiṣāmatha vā nṛpakarmaṇā.
45. sa rājan mokṣyase pāpāt tena pūrveṇa hetunā |
trāṇārtham vā vadhena eṣām atha vā nṛpakarmaṇā
45. rājan sa pūrveṇa tena hetunā pāpāt mokṣyase vā eṣām vadhena trāṇārtham,
atha vā nṛpakarmaṇā
45. O King, you will be liberated (mokṣa) from sin by that aforementioned reason: either for the sake of protecting (others) through the killing of these (enemies), or by fulfilling your duty (dharma) as a king.
अथ वा ते घृणा काचित्प्रायश्चित्तं चरिष्यसि ।
मा त्वेवानार्यजुष्टेन कर्मणा निधनं गमः ॥४६॥
46. atha vā te ghṛṇā kācitprāyaścittaṁ cariṣyasi ,
mā tvevānāryajuṣṭena karmaṇā nidhanaṁ gamaḥ.
46. atha vā te ghṛṇā kācit prāyaścittam cariṣyasi |
mā tu eva anāryajuṣṭena karmaṇā nidhanam gamaḥ
46. atha vā te kācit ghṛṇā (asti cet) prāyaścittam
cariṣyasi tu eva mā anāryajuṣṭena karmaṇā nidhanam gamaḥ
46. Or, if you have some compassion (ghṛṇā), you may perform atonement. But certainly do not meet your end through an ignoble act (karma).
