कर्मभूमौ याज्ञिकाश्च पौराणास्स्वर्गकाम्यया ॥ कुर्वन्ति ते वृथा सर्वे विहाय हिमवत्पुरम् ॥ ५२ ॥

In the land of activities (i.e. Bhārata), the sacrificial priests and the followers of Purāṇas perform holy rites with a desire to attain heaven. That is in vain because they have left off the city of Himavat.
