That Brahmana who adores (the goddess) Sandhya in the morning and in the evening and who recites the sacred Gayatri, who is the mother of the Vedas, is cleansed from all his sins after being sanctified by the latter. Even if he accepts in gift the entire earth with her oceans, he does not suffer the least unhappiness.
सायं प्रातश्च संध्यां यो ब्राह्मणोऽभ्युपसेवते। प्रजपन् पावनी देवीं गायत्री वेदमातरम्॥ स तया पावितो देव्या ब्राह्मणो नष्टकिल्बिषः। न सीदेत् प्रतिगृहणनो महीमपि ससागराम्॥
