वेदेष्वपि वदन्तीमें मन्त्रग्रामं द्विजातय: । जातकर्मणि पुत्राणां तवापि विदितं तथा,'पुत्रोंके जातकर्म संस्कारके समय वेदज्ञ ब्राह्मण जिस वैदिक मन्त्रसमुदायका उच्चारण करते हैं, उसे आप भी जानते हैं
vedeṣv api vadantīm imaṁ mantragrāmaṁ dvijātayaḥ | jātakarmaṇi putrāṇāṁ tavāpi viditaṁ tathā ||
قال دوشيانتا: «حتى في الفيدات، يتلو ذوو الميلادين (البراهمة) هذه المجموعة من التراتيل بعينها عند إقامة طقس الميلاد (جاتاكارما) للأبناء الذكور. وأنتِ أيضًا تعرفينها حقّ المعرفة».

The verse underscores the authority of Vedic tradition in validating social and familial rites: the jātakarma saṁskāra is grounded in Vedic mantra-recitation by the dvijas, and knowledge of these mantras signals adherence to dharma and recognized lineage-practice.
Duṣyanta points to a well-known Vedic mantra-set recited during the jātakarma ceremony for sons, indicating that the addressee is familiar with it too—invoking shared ritual knowledge to support his point within the ongoing discussion.
