Viswamitra

A man who is a sage cannot do what is sinful.

When one desire is fulfilled, another one immediately arises, seeking satisfaction and piercing the person like an arrow.

Fire is the mouth of the gods and their priest. He should only consume pure and clean things. However, at times, this great god consumes everything. I have become like him in this regard.

Life is better than death. Living, one may acquire virtue.

To preserve the root of all religious merit, I will eat unclean food.

Viswamitra said, 'It is not observed that a person commits a serious sin by eating forbidden food.'

It is from the desire to sustain my body that I want to take that dog's haunch.
