Therefore, one should not eat on the leaves of such trees [i.e., Tintidi—Tamarinda] and they should be especially worshiped. One should neither sleep under the Kula Vṛkṣas nor create any disturbance under them. Otherwise, seeing or hearing about such trees, one should greet them with devotion and never cut them down.
