यदि धर्मो भवेद्भूत अधर्मो वा परन्तप | न स्म हत्वा मुनिं वज्री कुर्यादिज्यां शतक्रतुः || ६-८३-२९

sanskrit

"Indra killed an ascetic (Viswarupa) and did fire sacrifice. If dharma alone is his duty, he could have done hundreds of fire sacrifices and not have killed the ascetic. If adharma is duty he would have killed the ascetic and not done fire sacrifice." [6-83-29]
