Brāhmaṇas Follow into Exile and Śaunaka’s Instruction
यो दद्यादपरिक्लिष्टमन्नमध्वनि वर्तते | भ्रान्तायादृष्टपूर्वाय तस्य पुण्यफलं महत्,जो गृहस्थ अपरिचित थके-माँदे पथिकको प्रसन्नतापूर्वक भोजन देता है, उसे महान् पुण्यफलकी प्राप्ति होती है
yo dadyād aparikliṣṭam annam adhvani vartate | bhrāntāyādṛṣṭapūrvāya tasya puṇyaphalaṁ mahat |
ယုဓိဋ္ဌိရက ဆိုသည်– ခရီးသွားစဉ် အားနည်းနွမ်းနယ်၍ လမ်းပျောက်နေသော၊ မိမိမသိမမြင်ဖူးသူ တစ်ဦးအား စိတ်မချွေတာဘဲ အစာအဟာရ ပေးလှူသူသည် ကုသိုလ်အကျိုးကြီးမားစွာ ရရှိသည်။
