M. N. Dutt: Amongst them the father, the son, the mother, the mother-in-law, the father-in-law, the maternal uncle, the son-in-law, the daughter-in-law, the brother, the grandson, other relations and guests, slaves, male and female mingle together. Thus women freely mix with men, known and unknown, Dishonest as they are they live upon friend and powered corn and fish in their homes and laugh and cry being drunk; they also eat beef. They sing unconnected songs and move about lustfully. They indulge in free speeches amongst themselves. How can virtue find a room among them? No one should inake friends with a Madraka or enter into hostilities with him. There is no feeling of friendship in him. The Madraka is always impure. Friendship is lost on a Madraka as purity in Gandharakas and as oblation offered in a sacrifice where the king is both the sacrificer and the priest. As a Brahmana performing the initiation ceremony of a Sudra meets with deterioration as one who hates a Brahmana, meets with deterioration so a person, forming alliance with a Madraka, is deteriorated. As there is no friendship in a Madraka, so is your poison is powerless, O Scorpion; with this Mantra of Atharvan I have duly performed the ceremony of peace. |
