- 2011, શ્રીરામકૃષ્ણ કથામૃત (અખંડ), Mahendranath Gupta:
- દહીંની દોણી ધોઈ હોય તોય તેમાં રાખતાં બીક લાગે ; ઘણે ભાગે દૂધ બગડી જાય.
- dahī̃nī doṇī dhoī hoy toy temā̃ rākhtā̃ bīk lāge ; ghaṇe bhāge dūdh bagḍī jāya.
- Even if the yogurt pot is washed, it feels risky to keep things in it; often, the milk spoils.
