Devanagari script
ऋषयस्तं प्रशंसन्ति साधु चैतदसंशयम् । सर्वथा सर्वदा वर्णर्यष्टव्यमिति निर्णय:,ऋषि भी उसकी प्रशंसा करते हैं। यह यज्ञ-कर्म श्रेष्ठ है, इसमें कोई संदेह नहीं है; अतः सभी वर्णके लोगोंको सदा सब प्रकारसे यज्ञ करना चाहिये, यही शास्त्रोंका निर्णय है
Transliteration
ṛṣayas taṃ praśaṃsanti sādhu caitad asaṃśayam | sarvathā sarvadā varṇair yaṣṭavyam iti nirṇayaḥ ||
Translation
Bhishma disse: “Os sábios rishis louvam isto, e com razão — não há dúvida. Portanto, de todas as maneiras e em todos os tempos, pessoas de todas as varṇa (ordens sociais) devem realizar o sacrifício (yajña); esta é a conclusão firmada pelas escrituras.”
