Sanskrit Text

बाह्ये चाभ्यन्तरे चैव कर्मणा मनसि स्थितः निर्मलीकुरुते बुद्ध्या सोऽमुत्रानन्त्यमश्नुते

Not that sacrifices are absolutely useless towards such an end. For a person, by relying upon both external and internal acts, and upon his own mind, can purify (them) by his own understanding. By such means, one can enjoy Infinity in the world.
