With his heart full of faith, he should adore the deities in the five well-known sacrifices. Possessed of patience, ever vigilant, having self-control, conversant with duties, with a purified soul, divested of joy, pride, and anger, the Brahmana should never sink in langour.
पञ्चभि सततं यज्ञैः श्रद्दधानो यजेत च। धृतिमानप्रमत्तश्च दान्तो धर्मविदात्मवान्॥ वीतहर्षमदक्रोधो ब्राह्मणो नावसीदति।
