एवमेतावापदि लिङ्गमेतद्धर्माधर्मौ वृत्तिनित्यौ भजेताम् । आद्यं लिङ्गं यस्य तस्य प्रमाणमापद्धर्मं संजय तं निबोध॥५-२८-३॥

Thus, in a time of crisis, this is their distinguishing mark: dharma and adharma may each assume the other’s customary ways of conduct. The primary sign—whichever it truly belongs to—is the criterion. Know this as āpaddharma, O Sañjaya.
