The Brahmana endued with learning, becomes the subjugator of the food that he eats. Having eaten it, be begets other food. The ignorant man who eats the food offered to him, loses his right to the children he procreates for the latter become his whose food has enabled the progenitor to beget them. This is the shortcoming of persons eating other people's food when they have not the power to conquer that food.
