MBh 12.90.7

Canonical Ref: MBh 12.90.7
Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
आहुरेतज्जना ब्रह्मन्न चैतच्छ्रद्दधाम्यहम् । निमन्त्र्यश्च भवेद्भोगैरवृत्त्या चेत्तदाचरेत् ॥
English Scholarly Translation
The king should further say to him,-Indeed, O Brahmana, people say that only that which is sufficient should be assigned to a Brahmana to maintain him. I, however, do not hold that opinion. On the other hand, I think that if a Brahmana seeks to abandon a kingdom for the king neglecting to provide him with means of support, such means should be assigned to him, and, further, if he wishes to take that step for procuring the means of luxury, he should still be requested to stay and supplied with those luxuries.
