The preceptor saw that he was still fat and he asked, “Upamanyu my child, you do not support yourself by alms, nor do you go begging for the second time, nor do you drink the milk of my cows, but you are still fat, how do you support yourself now?"
तमुपाध्याय: पीवानमेव दृष्टोवाच 'वत्सोपमन्यो भैक्ष्य नाश्नासि, न चान्यच्चरसि, पयो न पीबसि, पीवानसि भृशम् केनेदानी वृत्ति कल्पयसि' इति॥
