6.11.1
शमीमश्वत्थ आरूढस्तत्र पुंसुवनं कृतम् ।
तद्वै पुत्रस्य वेदनं तत्स्त्रीष्वा भरामसि ॥ ६.११.१ ॥
Having climbed the aśvattha, there on the śamī the puṃsavana rite was performed. That indeed is the obtaining of a son; we bring it hither to women.
6.11.2
पुंसि वै रेतो भवति तत्स्त्रियामनु षिच्यते ।
तद्वै पुत्रस्य वेदनं तत्प्रजापतिरब्रवीत् ॥ ६.११.२ ॥
In the male indeed the seed comes to be; that is afterwards poured into the woman. That indeed is the obtaining of a son, Prajāpati said.
6.11.3
प्रजापतिरनुमतिः सिनीवाल्यचीकॢपत् ।
स्त्रैषूयमन्यत्र दधत्पुमांसमु दधदिह ॥ ६.११.३ ॥
Prajāpati, Anumati and Sinīvālī fashioned it. Placing the power of offspring in women, and bearing a male child elsewhere, bear a male child here too.
