एतत्त्रयं शरीरे च यस्य तिष्ठति नित्यशः । तस्यैव दर्शनं लोके दुर्लभं पापहारकम् ११ ।

The sight of the persons who have these three in their bodies is a rare occurrence. But when obtained it removes all sins.

तद्दर्शनं यथा वेणी नोभयोरंतरं मनाक् । एवं योनविजानाति सपापिष्ठो न संशयः १२ ।

There is no difference at all between these two—a sight of the holy man and a bath in the Triveṇī. He who does not realise this is undoubtedly a sinner.

शरीरे च त्रयं यस्य तत्फलं चैकतः स्थितम् । एकतो वेणिकायाश्च स्नानजंतुफलं बुधैः १५ ।
