Manava Dharmashastra 4.81

4.81

pūrvasya pratiṣedhasya nindārthavādaḥ |
tenaiva saheti | ubhayordoṣamāha, śṛṇvataḥ śrāvayataśca | majjatyavagāhate tatprāpnotīti yāvat |

He who expounds to him the law, and he who indicates the penance to him, will sink, along with him, into the hell called “asaṃvṛta.”—(81).

Medhātithi’s commentary (manubhāṣya):
This is a deprecatory supplement to the foregoing text.

‘Will sink along with him;’—this shows that both parties are considered guilty—he who expounds, as also he who hears it expounded.

‘Will sink’—will fall into, i.e., will reach.—(81).

This verse is quoted in Aparārka (p. 220).
