Na cāhaṃ brāhmaṇaṃ brūmi,
yonijaṃ mattisambhavaṃ;
Bhovādi nāma so hoti,
sace hoti sakiñcano;
Akiñcanaṃ anādānaṃ,
tamahaṃ brūmi brāhmaṇaṃ.
I do not call a man a Brâhmana because of his origin or of his mother. He is indeed arrogant, and he is wealthy: but the poor, who is free from all attachments, him I call indeed a Brâhmana.
