> Manu-saˆhit€ says, pravttir e€ bh™t€n€ˆ nivttis tu mah€-phal€:

 

It is Manu-samhita 5.56. You can find the full verse quoted in SB

11.5.11 (in Vedabase):

 

na m€ˆsa-bhakaŠe doo

na madye na ca maithune

pravttir e€ bh™t€n€ˆ

nivttis tu mah€-phal€

 

“It may be considered that meat-eating, intoxication and sex indulgence

are natural propensities of the conditioned souls, and therefore such

persons should not be condemned for these activities. But unless one

gives up such sinful activities, there is no possibility of achieving

the actual perfection of life.”
