yā vedavihitā hiṃsā niyatāsmiṃś carācare
ahiṃsām eva tāṃ vidyād vedād dharmo hi nirbabhau //
That slaughter which is in accordance with the precepts of the Veda, and has been fixed for this world of movable and immovable creatures, should be considered as no slaughter at all; because it is from the Veda that law shines forth.
