antakaran ka nigrah karana; indriyaan ka daman karana; dharmapalan ke liye kasht sahana; bahar-bhitar se shuddh rahana, doosaroan ke aparadhoan ko kshama karana; man, indriy aur sharir ko saral rakhana; ved[1], shastr, eeshvar aur paralok adi mean shraddha rakhana; ved shastroan ka adhyayan-adhyapan karana aur paramatma ke tattv ka anubhav karana ye sab ke sab hi brahman ke svabhavik karm haian ॥42॥

Subjugation of the mind and senses, enduring hardships for the discharge of one's sacred obligations, external and internal purity, forgiving the faults of others, straightness of mind, senses and behaviour, belief in the Vedas and other scriptures, God and life after death etc., study and teaching of the Vedas and other scriptures and realization of the truth relating to God—all these constitute the natural duty of a Brahmana. (42)
