4.31 For one who offers nothing Krishna speaks

यज्ञशिष्टामृतभुजो यान्ति ब्रह्म सनातनम्
नायं लोकोऽस्त्ययज्ञस्य कुतो़ऽन्यः कुरुसत्तम

yajña-śhiṣhṭāmṛita-bhujo yānti brahma sanātanam
nāyaṁ loko ’styayajñasya kuto ’nyaḥ kuru-sattama

Those who eat what remains of the offering go to the eternal. But for one who makes no offering there is no place, either here or beyond.

Explanation

And the one who offers nothing.

Those who eat what remains of the offering go to the eternal. For one who makes no offering there is no place, either here or beyond.

The same charge 3.12 made as theft, put now as homelessness. Standing outside the exchange leaves nowhere to stand.
