वाते पित्ते श्लेष्मशान्तौ च पथ्यं तैलं सर्पिर्माक्षिकं च क्रमेण । एतद्ब्रह्मा भाषतां ब्रह्मजो वा का निर्मन्त्रे वक्तृभेदोक्तिशक्तिः ॥ ८६ ॥

“Oil, ghee and honey are suitable for the mitigation of Vata, Pitta and Kapha respectively”. What (difference does it make) if this statement is made either by Brahma or by the son of Brahma? Is there any (special) power in words which are not hymns, when spoken by different persons?
