Manu 3.25

पञ्चानां तु त्रयो धर्म्या द्वाव् अधर्म्यौ स्मृताव् इह । पैशाचश् च-असुरश् च-एव न कर्तव्यौ) कदा चन ॥

pañcānāṃ tu trayo dharmyā dvāv adharmyau smṛtāv iha | paiśācaś ca-asuraś ca-eva na kartavyau) kadā cana ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

But in these (Institutes of the sacred law) three of the five (last) are declared to be lawful and two unlawful; the Pai^a^a and the Asura (rites) must never be used.

Translated by Georg BühlerFrom an unproofread scan of the printed edition; spelling and line breaks may carry OCR errors.
