The distinction is still maintained in our social phraseology \*ghar pīchhe\* and \*pāgṛī pīchhe\*, 'per household,' and 'per head' (lit. per turban=every male member). More likely it refers to equality amongst aristocrats, otherwise it would be illogical after the mention of the universal equality by birth. - [Previous: c22.25](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c22.25) - [Next: c22.27](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c22.27) - [Up: c22](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c22) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c22.26](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c22.26) · Pramāṇa
