Adhyaya 29 — Alarka’s Inquiry and Madalasa’s Teaching on Householder Dharma (Gārhasthya), Vaiśvadeva, and Atithi Hospitality
ब्राह्मणं प्राहुरतिथिं स पूज्यः शक्तितो बुधैः ।
न पृच्छेद् गोत्रचरणं स्वाध्यायञ्चापि पण्डितः ॥
brāhmaṇaṃ prāhur atithiṃ sa pūjyaḥ śaktito budhaiḥ / na pṛcched gotracaraṇaṃ svādhyāyaṃ cāpi paṇḍitaḥ
人们称婆罗门（brāhmaṇa）为“阿底提”；智者当随其能力而敬奉之。学者不应询问其氏族（gotra）、吠陀支派/诵系（caraṇa），乃至其自习诵读之传承（svādhyāya）。

Ācāra/Dharma instruction; a normative social-ethical rule within the Purāṇic framework.
Refusing to ask gotra/caraṇa/svādhyāya curbs pride and factionalism; the guest is received as a bearer of sacred presence, not as a social category to be evaluated.
