नाश्रॊत्रियं देव हव्ये नियुञ्ज्यान; मॊघं परा सिञ्चति तादृशॊ हि अपूर्णम अश्रॊत्रियम आह तार्क्ष्य; न वै तादृग जुहुयाद अग्निहॊत्रम ॥ ३-१८४-१४ ॥
'Saraswati continued, "One who is not learned in the Vedas, or who is not capable of hearing and understanding them, should not be entrusted with the sacred offering. For such a person, the offering is wasted, as they cannot perform the ritual properly. Thus, Tarkshya, one who is not well-versed in the sacred texts should not attempt to perform the Agnihotra."' ॥ 3-184-14 ॥
