ing permission from him. Ho should be diligent in the guru’s business; there should be thorough evoking of his affection; and when summoned by him, he should read intently, his mind I withdrawn from everything else. After acquiring one, two or all the Vedas from his guru’s mouth, he is authorized to give the ' guru his fee with words of eulogy. But let him enter on the griha-stha period when desirous of the period of family life; or, by his own wish, on the vana-prastha period and on the ' fourth period. Or let the dvija await his decease there in dead, or to the guru’s disciple, if there be no son. Obedient, free from self-conceit, let him pass through the period of a brahnia-c'drin.
