Shloka : 178
न स्त्रीप्रतिकृति: कार्या न स्पृश्यं योषितोंऽशुकम् ।
न वीक्ष्यं मैथुनपरं प्राणिमात्रं च तैर्धिया ॥ 178 ॥
અને તે નૈષ્ઠિક બ્રહ્મચારી તેમણે સ્ત્રીની પ્રતિમા ન કરવી, ને સ્ત્રીએ પોતાના શરીર ઉપર ધારેલું જે વસ્ત્ર તેને અડવું નહિ, અને મૈથુનાસક્ત એવાં જે પશુપક્ષ્યાદિક પ્રાણીમાત્ર, તેમને જાણીને જોવાં નહિ. ॥ 178 ॥
And a staunch celibate should not make an image of a woman and should not touch a cloth worn by a woman and should not observe the birds, animals etc. any living being engaged in copulation. || 178 ||
Commentary
And the celibates should not draw an image of a woman except that of a Godess. And they should not touch, willingly, clothes worn by a woman i.e. a dry or a wet cloth which has been washed after a woman wore it or the clothes which are not completely new but which had been worn by a woman and then kept aside after removing them. And the celibates should not observe any living beings including birds, animals etc. willingly and with interest which are engaged in the act of copulation. They should never stay in a house where the pictures etc. of the sexual act are displayed. They should never sit in front of a woman directly facing her.
