विधियज्ञाज् जपयज्ञो विशिष्टो दशभिर्गुणैः । उपांशुः स्यात्शतगुणः साहस्रो मानसः स्मृतः ॥ ८५ ॥

An offering, consisting of muttered prayers, is ten times more efficacious than a sacrifice performed according to the rules (of the Veda); a (prayer) which is inaudible (to others) surpasses it a hundred times, and the mental (recitation of sacred texts) a thousand times.
