वेदत्रयेऽपि यज्ञेऽस्मिन् याज्यं वेदेषु निश्चयः । यो भेदं कुरुतेऽस्माकं त्रयाणां द्विजसत्तम । स पापकाऽरी दुष्टात्मा दुर्गतिं गतिमाप्नुयात् ॥ ७०.२८ ॥

तीन वेद के हिसाब से यज्ञ होता है। वेद में लिखा है कि क्या चढ़ाना है। जो लोग तीन वेद में भेद करते हैं, वो पापी होते हैं। उनका मन खराब हो जाता है। उनका खराब दिन आता है।
