The gods know him to be a Brahmana, who forsakes his wrath and spiritual ignorance; and who also speaks the truth here and comforts the preceptor, who having himself injured, never injures others.
यः क्रोधमोहौ त्यजति तं देवा ब्राह्मणं विदुः। यो वदेदिह सत्यानि गुरुं संतोषयेत च॥ हिंसितश्च न हिंसेत तं देवा ब्राह्मणं विदुः।
