4.31 Those who eat the remnants of the sacrifice, which are like nectar, go to the eternal Brahman. This world is not for the man who does not perform sacrifice; how then can he have the other, O Arjuna?
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaEnglish
O best of the Kuru dynasty, without sacrifice one can never live happily on this planet or in this life: what then of the next?
