asteyam agnaye kāṣṭham asteyaṃ paśave tṛṇam | asteyaṃ phalam āraṇyam asteyaṃ pārthivaṃ jalam
Having approached Devala, best of sages, / who was seated comfortably on the bank of the Indus, all the sages spoke these words:
Wood for the fire is not theft, grass for cattle is not theft, wild fruit is not theft, water from the ground is not theft.
