Sanskrit Text

षट्कर्मसंप्रवृत्तस्य आश्रमेषु चतुर्ष्वपि सर्वधर्मोपपन्नस्य संभूतस्य कृतात्मनः

English Translation

That Brahmana, who, in all the four modes of life, performs the sixfold acts (as regulating the breath, contemplation, etc.), who performs all his duties, who is patient, who has his passions under restraint, whose heart is pure and practises penances, who has no desire of bettering his situation and who is charitable, attains to regions of bliss in the next world.
