ṛcāṃ mūrdhānaṃ yajuṣām uttamāṅgam | sāmnāṃ śiro 'tharvāṇāṃ muṇḍamuṇḍam | nādhīte 'dhīte vedam āhus tam ajñam | śiraś chitvāsau kurute kabandham ||

The head of the Ṛgveda verses, the highest limb of the Yajurveda formulas, / the head of the Sāmaveda melodies, the shaved crown of the Atharvaveda texts: / he who studies the Veda without studying [this], they call him ignorant; / cutting off the head, he makes a headless trunk.
