Source: Google Books: Manusmṛti with the ManubhāṣyaBrahmadāyādāhara (ब्रह्मदायादाहर):—He who has acquired both, the Veda (‘Brahman’) and the heritage (‘dāya’) is called brahmadāyādāhara. “Dāya” (‘heritage’) is what is given, i.e., property;—“Brahman” is ‘veda’;—“Haraṇa” is acquiring. It is only when the boy has learnt the Veda and received his share of the ancestral property from his father that he takes to the Householder’s state ; a man without any property not being entitled to enter upon that stage. (see the Manubhāṣya, III.3)
