Men collect together various articles (for the celebration of sacrifices) according to the Vedic prescription. He who, impelled by his own foolish understanding, gives away wealth to an undeserving person without giving it to the deserving, does not know that he incurs the sin of killing a foetus.
कृच्छ्राच्च द्रव्यसंहारं कुर्वन्ति धनकारणात्। धनेन तृषितोऽबुद्ध्या भ्रूणहत्यां न बुद्ध्यते॥
