2.23.1
trayo dharmaskandhāḥ \
yajño 'dhyayanaṃ dānam iti prathamaḥ \
tapa eva dvitīyaḥ brahmacāry: ācāryakulavāsī tṛtīyo (S S ))\ sarva ete puṇyalokā bhavanti \
brahmasaṃstho 'mṛtatvam eti \\223.1\
1. There are three branches of duty. Sacrifice, study of the Vedas, alms-giving—that is the first. (2) Austerity, indeed, is the second. A student of sacred knowledge (brahmacārin) dwelling in the house of a teacher, settling himself permanently in the house of a teacher, is the third.
All these become possessors of meritorious worlds. He who stands firm in Brahma attains immortality.
