While being in the temple on a celebration , my male followers shall not touch females and females followers not touch males but outside the temple they may behave as usual. ||31||
All my Brahmin , Kshatriya and Vaishya ('Dvija' as they are called in 'Sanskrit') followers who are initiated into the devotion of Lord Shro Krishna by a preceptor descended from the family of Shri Dharmdev shall always put on around their neck a double 'Kanthi' (rosary) of Tulsi beads and shall make a vertical Tilak Mark on their forehead, chest and on both the arms. ||32||
This Tilak should be made of Gopichandan (i.e. white earth of Dwarika) or white sandal-wood paste mixed with saffron and kumkum left over after having been offered to Lord Shri Krishna while performing 'Puja'. ||33||
In the middle of that Tilan a round shaperd mark should be done with Gopichandan or with sanctified kumkum duly offered to Radhikaji or Laxmiji. ||34||
The devotees of Shree Krishna who belong to higher backward classes (i.e. Satshudras) observing their own 'Dharm' (riligion) shall, not wear 'Tulsi-Mala' (Kanthi of Tulsi beads) and imprint Tilak (religious mark) just like my followers of other three 'Varnas' (i.e. Brahmins, Kshatriya and Vaishya) ||35||
The devotees belonging to the castes lower that the 'Satshudras' shall wear around their necks, double Knathi (rosary) of sandal beadsm duly sanctified by offering it to God and shall make on their forehead, only a round mark (Chandla) without vertical Tilak. ||36||
