Library·Manu-Smrti·1·1.98
उत्पत्तिर् एव विप्रस्य मूर्तिर् धर्मस्य शाश्वती । स हि धर्मार्थम् उत्पन्नो ब्रह्मभूयाय कल्पते) ॥
utpattir eva viprasya mūrtir dharmasya śāśvatī | sa hi dharmārtham utpanno brahmabhūyāya kalpate) ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The very birth of a Brahmana is an eternal incarnation of the sacred law; for he is born to (fulfil) the sacred law, and becomes one with Brahman.
