**Admonition.** The ceremony of initiation concludes with the following charge laid upon the Brahmachārin: “A Brahamachārin art thou! Drink water. Do the service. Do not sleep in the day-time. Devoted to the teacher, study the Veda” [*Āśval.*, i, 22, 2]. The Śāṅkhāyana [ii, 4, 5] adds the further duty—“Put on fuel” [cf. also *Pārask.*, ii, 3, 2; *Gobhila*, ii, 10, 34; *Hiraṇya.* i, 2, 5, 11].
