13.17.1
श्रद्दात्यागं निर्वृतिं चापि पूजां ।
सत्यं धर्मं यः कृतं चाभ्युपैति।
कामद्वेषौ त्यज्य सर्वेषु तुल्यः ।
श्रद्धापूतः सर्वयज्ञेषु योग्यः ॥ १३.१७.१ ॥
He who embraces faith, renunciation, contentment, worship, truth and dharma as it is practiced, who abandons desire and aversion and stands equal toward all, purified by faith, becomes fit for all sacrifices.
13.17.2
यस्मिन्यज्ञे सर्वभूताः प्रहृष्टाः ।
सर्वे चारम्भाः शास्त्रदृष्टाः प्रवृत्ताः।
धर्म्यैरर्थ्यैर्ये यजन्ते ध्रुवं ते ।
पूतात्मानो धर्ममेकं भजन्ते ॥ १३.१७.२ ॥
In the sacrifice in which all beings rejoice and all undertakings prescribed by scripture are set in motion, those who perform it with righteous and proper aims surely become purified souls and attain the one dharma.
13.17.3
एकाक्षरं द्व्यक्षरमेकमेव ।
सदा यजन्ते नियताः प्रतीताः।
दृष्ट्वा मनागर्चयित्वा स्म विप्राः ।
सतां मार्गं तं ध्रुवं सम्भजन्ते ॥ १३.१७.३ ॥
With the one-syllable and the two-syllable formula, the self-restrained and renowned brahmins always sacrifice to the one; having seen a little and honored (it), they follow that firm path of the good.
13.17.4
पापात्मानः क्रोधरगाभिभूताः ।
कृष्णे भक्ता नाम सङ्कीर्तयन्तः।
पूतात्मानो यज्ञशीलाः सुमेधा ।
यज्ञस्यान्ते कीर्तिलोकान्भजन्ते ॥ १३.१७.४ ॥
Sinful souls overcome by anger and passion, devoted to Kṛṣṇa, chant his name; purified souls, devoted to sacrifice and of good wisdom, at the end of the sacrifice attain the worlds of fame.
13.17.5
एको वेदो ब्राह्मणानां बभूव ।
चतुष्पादस्त्रिगुणो ब्रह्मशीर्षः।
पादंपादं ब्राह्मणा वेदमाहु-
स्त्रेताकाले तं च तं विद्धि शीर्षम् ॥ १३.१७.५ ॥
For the brahmins there was one Veda, four-footed, threefold, with Brahman as its head. In the Tretā age the brahmins speak of it quarter by quarter as the Veda; know that head likewise.
