कामिक आगम: पूर्व भाग (अष्टाविंशति मूल शैव आगमों का प्रथम एवं सर्वोच्च आगम महाकोश)

The foremost Acharya should allow the herds of cows, bulls and calves to eat the tender shoots which have
sprouted from the seeds after ploughing the ground. He should arrange for the continued staying of these
herds for three, five or seven nights confined to the ground. The dung and the urine discharged from the
cows associated with the calves and the bulls and scattered on the ground, frequent rubbing of the hoofs,
mutual smelling of the cows and the bulls, their footprints copiously made by their jumping and wandering,
pieces of cuds fallen from the mouth of the cattle due to chewing, froth fallen from the mouth of the calves –
by all such cow-related materials the ground gets immensely purified and rendered to be highly
auspicious. The villages and other settlements should be formed over such purified ground.
