Sanskrit Text

श्रुतिविज्ञानतत्त्वज्ञः शिष्टाचारो विचक्षणः स्वधर्मेण क्रियावांश्च कर्मणा सोऽप्यसंकरः

English Translation

One who is well-read in the truths of the Vedas and the other branches of knowledge, whose conduct is like that of a person of wellgoverned soul, who is gifted with a clear vision, who follows the duties of his order, who does not by his acts make an intermixture of duties, who follows the observances laid down in the scriptures, who is endued with wisdom, who is shorn of envy and malice, and who is well conversant with the differences between righteous and iniquity, succeeds in overcoming all his difficulties.
