anyatpṛthageva vidyayā kriyate phalamityāhurvadatti"vidyayā devalokaḥ"(bṛ.u.1 / 6 / 16) "karmaṇā kriyate karmaṇā pitṛlokaḥ"(bṛ.u.1 / 5 / 16) iti śruteḥ /

ent result (is achieved), and they say that by avidyā a different result (is achieved)", thus have we heard the (teaching of) those wise men who explained that to us.
Anyat eva, a really different (thing); is produced as a result; Vidyayā, by vidyā (worship or meditation)—(this) āhuḥ, they say, because of the Vedic texts: "The world of gods is (won) through meditation" (Bṛ. I. v. 16); "They ascend there through meditation". Āhuḥ, they say; anyat avidyayā by avidyā, karma (rites), a different (result) is produced, because of the Vedic text: "The world of the Manes (is won) through karma" (Bṛ. I. v. 16). Iti, thus; śuśruma, we have heard; dhīrāṇām, (the teaching) of the wise men, those teachers, who vicacakṣire, explained to us; tat, that—karma and meditation. The purport is that this is their knowledge traditionally received.
