A boy who has lived with a menstruating woman for sixteen years is purified by bathing, but one who has drunk from her breast is purified only by sprinkling with consecrated water. || 38 ||
... One who eats from a vessel in which a menstruating woman has eaten, without it having been heated, should fast for two days, bathe, and wash all the clothes on his body. || 39 ||
If one touches the vessel, the cloth, or the place where she has been, then he should bathe and recite the Aparajita mantra one hundred and eight times. || 40 ||
Whatever is not mentioned here should be understood from the customs of the world. Now we will discuss the rules of purification for birth, death, and mixed impurity. || 41 ||
There are two types of impurity: birth impurity and death impurity. There are three types of birth impurity: discharge, miscarriage, and childbirth. || 42 ||
Discharge is said to occur in the third and fourth months of pregnancy. Miscarriage occurs in the fifth and sixth months. Childbirth occurs in the seventh and subsequent months. || 43 ||
**Impurity due to discharge:**
The impurity for the mother due to discharge lasts for as many days as the number of months of the pregnancy. The father and other relatives of the same lineage are purified by bathing only. || 44 ||
**Impurity due to miscarriage:**
The impurity for the mother due to miscarriage lasts for as many days as the number of months of the pregnancy. The impurity for the father and other relatives of the same lineage lasts for one day. || 45 ||
