O wise man, there are in this world persons who speak ill of the Preaching. They say that they, who having rejected the food fit for the saints of the old time. eat like the meat-eaters, give pain to the small creatures living in sky, earth and water, roam hither and thither troubling them; what kind of monk-hood and Brahman- hood they have got, their monk-hood is destroyed, their Brahman-hood is made impure ; they do not possess piety nor conduct.
