Manu 9.320 — Manu-Smrti

Manu 9.320

क्षत्रस्य-अतिप्रवृद्धस्य ब्राह्मणान् प्रति सर्वशः । ब्रह्म-एव संनियन्तृ स्यात्) क्षत्रं हि ब्रह्मसंभवम् ॥

kṣatrasya-atipravṛddhasya brāhmaṇān prati sarvaśaḥ | brahma-eva saṃniyantṛ syāt) kṣatraṃ hi brahma.saṃbhavam ||

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

When the Kshatriyas become in any way overbearing towards the Brāhmaṇas, the Brāhmaṇas themselves shall duly restrain them; for the Kshatriyas sprang from the Brāhmaṇas.

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