अन्यथा वेदशास्त्राणि ज्ञानपाण्डित्यमन्यथा ।
अन्यथा तत्पदं शान्तं लोकाः क्लिश्यन्ति चाह्न्यथा ॥५.१०॥

anyathā vedaśāstrāṇi jñānapāṇḍityamanyathā |
anyathā tatpadaṃ śāntaṃ lokāḥ kliśyanti cāhnyathā ||5.10||

unnecessarily disrespecting the knowledge of the Vedas, unnecessarily devaluing the expertise of the Shastras, unnecessarily deriding men of peaceful disposition; such people come to sorrow unnecessarily
