Shloka 13
अन्यानपि सूृजेयुश्न लोकॉल्लोकेश्वरांस्तथा । कथं तेषु न वर्तेरन् सम्यग् ज्ञानातू सुतेजस:
anyān api sṛjeyuś ca lokān lokeśvarāṃs tathā | kathaṃ teṣu na varteran samyag jñānāt sutejasaḥ ||
Vāyu berkata: “Mereka juga mampu melahirkan dunia-dunia yang lain, dan demikian juga para penguasa dunia-dunia itu. Maka bagaimana mungkin orang yang bercahaya wibawa—yang mengetahui dengan pemahaman yang benar akan kebesaran para Brāhmaṇa—tidak berkelakuan dengan sewajarnya terhadap mereka?”

Educational Q&A
True power is guided by right knowledge: those who understand the spiritual and social significance of Brāhmaṇas should naturally treat them with proper respect and correct conduct.
Vāyu argues by emphasizing the extraordinary capacities attributed to exalted beings—able to create worlds and their rulers—and concludes that such enlightened, powerful persons would not neglect proper behavior toward Brāhmaṇas once they truly know their importance.
