You know the energy and the nobility of the Brahmana as laid down in the Veda and other scriptures. Act now in such a way that you may have tranquillity of heart and let Brahmanas be your refuge. If the Brahmanas do not be angry with you, you will, forsooth, enjoy happiness in heaven. If, again, you repent for sins, your sight will be clear and you will succeed in seeing righteousness.
विदितं भवतो वीर्यं माहात्म्यं वेद आगमे। कुरुष्वेह यथाशान्ति ब्रह्मा शरणमस्तु ते॥ तद् वै पारत्रिकं तात ब्राह्मणानामकुप्यताम्। अथवा तप्यसे पापे धर्ममेवानुपश्य वै॥
