In the same way: “certainly” and so forth. The distinctions of sacrifices were stated (e.g. dravya-yajñas). Among gifts, for example, there is the giving of fearlessness. This means that whatever of these various acts is to be performed as a sacrifice, and so on. Otherwise, whether a brahmachārī, householder, or vanaprastha—if one desires to attain moksha one should adopt the highest āśrama and so on—this would contradict Smṛti. For sacrifices of knowledge, gifts of learning, giving of fearlessness, brahmacharya and austerities are indeed those (means). Therefore, when a statement is otherwise interpreted, it should be adjusted according to the difference of adhikāra (qualification), since other interpretations would lack applicability.
