Sanskrit Text

पञ्चम्यां चैव षष्ठ्यां पौर्णमास्यां भारत क्षमावान्रूपसंपन्नः श्रुतवांश्चैव जायते

English Translation

The wise man who, with his senses and soul under restraint, O Bharata, fasts, by abstaining from one of the two meals, on the fifth and the sixth days of the moon as also on the day of the full moon, becomes gifted with forgiveness and personal beauty and knowledge of scriptures. Such a person never becomes childless and poor.
