## Somasen Bhattarak Composed:
**Verse 97:**
One should not perform the act of purification (achaman), worship of the Jina, etc., without a darbha (sacred grass). During the worship of the Jina, chanting, and homa (fire ritual), a Brahma knot should be tied in the pavitra (sacred thread).
**Verse 98:**
One should perform the achaman holding a pavitra with darbha in hand. By performing achaman in this way, the pavitra does not become ucchishta (impure). However, after eating, it becomes ucchishta, so it should be discarded.
**Verse 99:**
Types of pavitra: Darbha, lead, copper, silver, and gold. One should wear a pavitra made of one of these materials on the right hand. The pavitra made of darbha is considered superior to lead, lead to copper, copper to silver, and silver to gold.
**Verse 100:**
A person who wears a gold ring on the ring finger, a silver ring on the index finger, and a copper ring on the little finger is considered pure.
**Verse 101:**
Shravakas (lay followers) should wear gold earrings in both ears, gold bangles on both hands, and silver sandals on their feet. They should also have a shawl (uttarīya) and a clean cloth (yogapatta) with them.
**Verse 102:**
One should not wear a yogapatta, a silver ring on the index finger, or silver sandals if one's father, elder brother, or a person who is living a life of happiness is alive.
