1.11.2

Never swerve from your duties towards Gods and towards the departed souls (Manes). May the mother be, to thee, a God. May the father be to thee a God. May the Guru be to thee a God. May the guest be to thee a God.

Let only the actions that are free from blemishes be done – and not others. you must follow only those virtuous actions which are irreproachable – and not others.
