Manu 5.42
एष्व् अर्थेषु पशून् हिंसन् वेदतत्त्वार्थविद् द्विजः । आत्मानं च पशुं च-एव गमयत्य् उत्तमं गतिम् ॥
eṣv artheṣu paśūn hiṃsan vedatattvārthavid dvijaḥ | ātmānaṃ ca paśuṃ ca-eva gamayaty uttamaṃ gatim ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A twice-born man who, knowing the true meaning of the Veda, slays an animal for these pur-| poses, causes both himself and the animal to enten a most blessed state. ^
