MBh 12.80.9

Canonical Ref: MBh 12.80.9
Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
नेदं प्रति धनं शास्त्रमापद्धर्ममशास्त्रतः । आज्ञा शास्त्रस्य घोरेयं न शक्तिं समवेक्षते ॥
English Scholarly Translation
This ordinance (about the gift of Dakshina) is not the outcome of motives connected with the distribution of wealth. The command of the ordinance, when one cannot give according to the prescription, is terrible. That commandment has altogether neglected the capacity of the sacrificer.
