The Upanishads - Mandhata Global

„ "A man who steals the gold of a brahmin, he (i.e. a
brahmin) who drinks liquor, he who dishonours his
teacher‟s bed and he who kills a brahmin-these four
fall, as also a fifth who associates with them.‟ "
10
"But he who knows these Five Fires is not stained by
sin even though associating with them. He becomes
pure and clean and obtains the world of the blessed-he
who knows this, yea, he who knows this."
