Before the time comes when Brahmanas, loudly uttering the Vedas, within the precincts of villages and inhabited places, cause the Shudras hear them, before the time comes when kings offered against the rules of virtue from motives of policy, I shall go to the celestial region for good.
पुरा वेदान् ब्राह्मणा ग्राममध्ये घुष्टस्वरा वृषलान्श्रावयन्ति। पुरा राजा व्यवहारेण धर्मान् पश्यत्यहं परलोकं व्रजामि॥
