“The flesh-eater is prone to many kinds of diseases such as worms, many insects, leprosy, belly-pains etc. O wise man, I am preaching eating flesh as taking the flesh of one's own son. How can I order my disciples for eating flesh and blood, which are served by the savages, prohibitable by gentlemen, full of many defects, devoid of any benefits, unfit to be taken by the saints and totally rejectable ?"
“अनुज्ञातवान् पुनरहं महामते पूर्वर्षि प्रणीतभोजनं यदुत शालि यव गोधूम, मुद्गमाष मसूरादि सर्पिस्तैल मधुफाणित गुडखंड मत्सपिंडिकादिषु समुपद्यमानं भोजनं कल्प्यमिति grat.”
