[347] Some Hindus, when intending to go on a journey, consult an astrologer as to the muhūrt or auspicious hour for setting out. If they do not happen to leave their place at the prescribed moment, they put a pastānā—some of the articles to be carried by them in their journey—such as a suit of clothes or a box, in a neighbour’s house as a token of their having set out at the stated time.—K.
