Dhṛitarâshṭra said :
Some people make great boasts in consequence of (their knowing) the Vedas with the Akhyânas as the fifth; others, likewise, are (masters) of four Vedas; others, too, of three Vedas; others are (masters) of two Vedas, and of one Veda; and others of no Veda.. Tell me which of these is the greatest, whom I may know (to be) a Brâhmaṇa.

Some people boast greatly because they know the Vedas with the Akhyânas as the fifth; others, in the same way, are masters of four Vedas; others of three Vedas; others of two Vedas and of one Veda; and others of no Veda. Tell me which of these is the greatest, so that I may know who is a Brāhmaṇa.
