vedā dharmāśca notsādaṃ gaccheyuḥ surasattamāḥ |
vihitaṃ pūrvamevātra mayā vai vyetu vo jvaraḥ || 4 ||
"Brahman said, 'I am equal in my behaviour towards all creatures. I cannot, however, approve of unrighteousness. Let Taraka, that opponent of the deities and Rishis, be quickly destroyed. The Vedas and the eternal duties shall not be exterminated, ye foremost of celestials! I have ordained what is proper in this matter. Let the fever of your hearts be dispelled.'
