Narada Smriti · Chapter v10
pāṣaṇḍanaigamādīnāṃ sthitiḥ samaya ucyate /
samayasyānapākarma tad vivādapadaṃ smṛtam //
pāṣaṇḍanaigamaśreṇī pūgavrātagaṇādiṣu /
saṃrakṣet samayaṃ rājā durge janapade tathā //
yo dharmaḥ karma yac caiṣām upasthānavidhiś ca yaḥ /
yac caiṣāṃ vṛttyupādānam anumanyeta tat tathā //
pratikūlaṃ ca yad rājñaḥ prakṛtyavamataṃ ca yat /
bādhakaṃ ca yad arthānāṃ tat tebhyo vinivartayet //
mithaḥ saṃghātakaraṇam ahitaṃ śastradhāraṇam /
parasparopaghātaṃ ca teṣāṃ rājā na marṣayet //
pṛthag gaṇāṃś ca ye bhindyus te vineyā viśeṣataḥ /
āvaheyur bhayaṃ ghoraṃ vyādhivat te hy upekṣitāḥ //
doṣavat karaṇaṃ yat syād anāmnāyaprakalpitam /
pravṛttam api tad rājā śreyaskāmo nivartayet //
