Devanagari script
ययातिरुवाच अनिकेतो गृहस्थेषु कामवृत्तेषु संयत: । ग्राम एव वसनू् भिक्षुस्तयो: पूर्वतरं गत:,ययाति बोले--कामवृत्तिवाले गृहस्थोंके बीच ग्राममें ही वास करते हुए भी जो जितेन्द्रिय और गृहरहित संन्यासी है, वही उन दोनों प्रकारके मुनियोंमें पहले ब्रह्मभावको प्राप्त होता है
Translation
యయాతి అన్నాడు—కామవృత్తిగల గృహస్థుల మధ్య, గ్రామంలోనే నివసిస్తూ కూడా, ఇంద్రియనిగ్రహంతో సంయమితుడై, గృహరహితుడైన భిక్షు-సన్న్యాసి—అతడే ఆ ఇద్దరిలో ముందుగా బ్రహ్మభావాన్ని పొందుతాడు।
