Kuvalāśva’s Lineage and Uttaṅka’s Petition concerning Dhundhu (धुन्धु-प्रसङ्गः)
Devanagari script
राज्ये तदा तत्र गत्वा स विद्र: प्रोवाचेदं वचनं वामदेव: । दलं राजान ब्राह्मणानां हि देय- मेवं राजन् सर्वधर्मेषु दृष्टम्,तब पुनः उस राज्यमें जाकर विप्रवर वामदेवने राजा दलसे यह बात कही--“महाराज! ब्राह्मणोंकी वस्तु उन्हें दे दी जाय, यह बात सभी धर्मोमें देखी गयी है
Translation
ਫਿਰ ਉਸ ਰਾਜ ਵਿੱਚ ਜਾ ਕੇ ਵਿਪ੍ਰ ਵਾਮਦੇਵ ਨੇ ਰਾਜਾ ਦਲ ਨੂੰ ਆਖਿਆ—“ਮਹਾਰਾਜ! ਬ੍ਰਾਹਮਣਾਂ ਦੀ ਵਸਤੂ ਬ੍ਰਾਹਮਣਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਹੀ ਦੇਣੀ ਚਾਹੀਦੀ ਹੈ; ਹੇ ਰਾਜਨ, ਇਹ ਨਿਯਮ ਸਭ ਧਰਮਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਦਿੱਖਦਾ ਹੈ।”
