Meaning : The great sages have described scriptures as the infallible incantation removing the serpentbite in the form of wrong or perverted knowledge, as a fast for fever in the form of acting at will and as a basin of nectar for the garden in the form of religion. (7) [191]
Notes : To describe, in brief, the scriptures fulfil the purpose of removing the 379 and Falafel-irreligion and unrestrained behaviour. They generate worshipful attitude in the votaries and devotees. (7) [191 )
