Devanagari script
गवां मेधस्य यज्ञस्य फल प्राप्नोत्यनुत्तमम् । जो बारह महीनेतक सदा अन्निहोत्र करता
Translation
Dia memperoleh buah yang paling unggul daripada korban Gomedha. Sesiapa yang selama dua belas bulan sentiasa melaksanakan Agnihotra, mandi pada ketiga-tiga waktu sandhyā, memelihara brahmacarya, tidak memandang aib orang lain, hidup dengan laku seorang muni, dan hanya makan sekali pada setiap hari keenam—dialah yang meraih pahala tertinggi korban Gomedha.
