बहुधा दृश्यते धर्मः सूक्ष्म एव दविजॊत्तम भवान अपि च धर्मज्ञः सवाध्यायनिरतः शुचिः न तु तत्त्वेन भगवन धर्मान वेत्सीति मे मतिः ।। ३-१९७-४० ।।

sanskrit

'However, O foremost among the regenerate, the nature of virtue as expounded in the scriptures seems varied and multifaceted, making it elusive and subtle to fully comprehend. You, O holy one, are well-versed in virtue, pure and steadfast in your Vedic studies, yet I surmise that even you may not fully grasp the essence of virtue as it truly is.' ।। 3-197-40 ।।
