Even those who do not worship and bow to the celestials should serve their husbands alone being intent upon their welfare. Such is the virtue that should be always pursued by women according to the Vedas and Smſtis.
भर्तुः शुश्रूषया नारी लभते स्वर्गमुत्तमम्॥ अपि या निर्नमस्कारा निवृत्ता देवपूजनात्। शुश्रूषामेव कुर्वीत भर्तुः प्रियहिते रता॥ एष धर्मः स्त्रिया नित्यो वेदे लोके श्रुतः स्मृतः।
