यत्किंचनैककारीणि तिर्यग्वन्ति जगन्त्यधः ॥ ४५ ॥

śāstravedavihīnāni nirdharmāṇyeva kānicit |
yatkiṃcanaikakārīṇi tiryagvanti jagantyadhaḥ || 45 ||

The lower worlds (regions) are filled with human beings, that are without the pale of the vedas and sastras; and live without any faith, religion, and lead their lives in the state of beasts.
