[2017] "And they have fallen away from brahminhood" (thus spoke King Korabya), "they are not called brahmins. Seek out others, Vidhūra — virtuous, of great learning, abstaining from sexual intercourse (methuna dhamma), who may eat my food. Friend, we shall give the offering (dakkhiṇā) where what is given bears great fruit."
