But when a sacrifice is performed, O highest of the descendants of Bharata! with an expectation of fruit (from it), and for the purpose of ostentation, know that sacrifice (to be) passionate. They call that sacrifice dark, which is against the ordinances (of scripture), in which no food is dealt out (to Brahmanas, &c.), which is devoid of Mantras, devoid of Dakshina presents, and which is without faith. Paying reverence to gods, Brahmanas, preceptors, and men of knowledge; purity, straightforwardness, life as Brahmakarin, and harmlessness, (this) is called the penance bodily.
