Manu 5.27 — Manu-Smrti

Manu 5.27

प्रोक्षितं भक्षयेन् मांसं ब्राह्मणानां च काम्यया । यथाविधि नियुक्तस् तु प्राणानाम् एव च-अत्यये ॥

prokṣitaṃ bhakṣayen māṃsaṃ brāhmaṇānāṃ ca kāmyayā | yathāvidhi niyuktas tu prāṇānām eva ca-atyaye ||

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

One may eat meat when it has been sprinkled with water, while Mantras were recited, when BrahJ ma/zas desire (one's doing it), when one is engaged I (in the performance of a rite) according to the law, I and when one's life is in danger.
