Rainwater in Seasons

आन्तरिक्षजलम्

Antariksha Jala (atmospheric/rainwater) varies in properties based on the season of collection. The text describes the ideal collection method: rainwater should be collected in clean gold, silver, or earthen vessels. Water collected during Sharad Ritu (autumn) when the sun and moon are both visible is considered the best variety of rainwater, known as Hansodaka. Rainwater properties change with seasons - it may become heavier or contaminated depending on the atmospheric conditions and the surface it contacts after falling. Verses 19-21.
