N\u00e2r\u00e2yana has the following note: 'The evil which is attached to their body, such as dirt, they drive away, i.e. they remove it by means of their reciting (of the sacred texts), and then they perform the standing expiation which has been declared above, which begins with the syllable Om and with the Mah\u00e2vy\u00e2hritis' (see chap. 3, 12).\n147:1 5, 1. N\u00e2r\u00e2yana says that dadhe is supplied to this Mantra from the preceding S\u00fbtra, and so indeed the Mantra is given in the Aitareya recension. The translation of abhinihitam trir hitam is merely tentative; see N\u00e2r\u00e2yana's note, p. 165, of the German edition. Perhaps abhinihitam should be taken in its grammatical value, and the S\u00fbtra should be translated, \"That (I place) into myself (\u00e2tmani)\"\u2014with these words (they look) at themselves, pronouncing (the word \u00e2tmani) with Abhinidh\u00e2na, three times repeated (?).'
