Adhyāya 208: Aṅgirasī-kanyāḥ
Enumeration of Aṅgiras’ daughters and attribute-names
Devanagari script
कर्म चेक्किंचिदन्यत् स्यादितरज्न तदाचरेत् । यत् कल्याणमभिध्यायेत् तत्रात्मानं नियोजयेत्,यदि भूलसे कभी कोई निन्दित कर्म बन जाय तो फिर दुबारा वैसा काम न करे। अपने मन और बुद्धिसे विचार करनेपर जो कल्याणकारी प्रतीत हो, उसी कार्यमें अपनेको लगावे
Translation
If there is some other deed that ought to be done, then do that. And if ever an act becomes blameworthy, do not do the like again. Whatever, upon reflection with mind and understanding, appears to be for the good—set yourself to that work.
