तादृशो बध्यते बालो यत्र सत्यमनिष्ठितम् सत्यानते विनिश्चित्य ततो भवति धर्मवित्,जिसमें सत्य स्थिर न हो, ऐसा मूर्ख मनुष्य ही मारा जाता है। सत्य और असत्यका निर्णय करके सत्यका पालन करनेवाला पुरुष ही धर्मज्ञ माना जाता है
Transliteration
tādṛśo badhyate bālo yatra satyam aniṣṭhitam | satyānṛte viniścitya tato bhavati dharmavit ||
Translation
