26.40

「婆悉咤!梵天無恚心,三明婆羅門有恚心,有恚心、無恚心不共同,不俱解脫,不相趣向,是故梵天、婆羅門不共同也。云何,婆悉咤!梵天有瞋心、無瞋心耶?」

“Vāsiṣṭha, Brahmā has no resentment, but the priests who possess the three Vedas have resentment. They don’t equally have or have no resentment. They aren’t both free of it and headed the same way. Therefore, Brahmā and the priests aren’t equals. How is it, Vāsiṣṭha? Does Brahmā have anger, or does he not?”
