अध्याय १९० — वामदेव-वाम्य-वृत्तान्तः
The Vāmadeva Horses Episode and the Ethics of Promise
सम्यग् वेदमधीयाना यजन्ते विविधैर्मखै: । शान्तात्मानो जितक्रोधा: प्राप्रुवन्ति द्विजातय:,जो द्विजाति अच्छी तरह वेदोंका अध्ययन करके शान्तचित्त और क्रोधशून्य होकर नाना प्रकारके यज्ञोंद्वारा मेरी आराधना करते हैं, उन्हें ही मेरी प्राप्ति होती है
samyag vedam adhīyānā yajante vividhair makhaiḥ | śāntātmāno jitakrodhāḥ prāpnuvanti dvijātayaḥ ||
Sang Dewa bersabda: “Mereka yang dua-kali-lahir (dvija) yang mempelajari Weda dengan benar, berhati tenteram dan telah menaklukkan amarah, menyembah-Ku melalui berbagai macam yajña; merekalah yang mencapai-Ku.”

Educational Q&A
True attainment of the Divine requires a complete dharmic life: correct Vedic study, disciplined performance of sacrifice, and inner virtues—especially tranquility and conquest of anger. Ritual is validated by ethical self-mastery.
A divine speaker explains who truly reaches Him: not merely those who perform rites, but those twice-born who combine Vedic learning with many forms of yajña while maintaining a calm mind and freedom from anger.
