अथेदम् आरभ्यते मित्र-सम्प्राप्तिर् नाम द्वितीयं तन्त्रम् । यस्यायम् आद्यः श्लोकः-
Now the second tantra, called “The Attainment of Friends,” is begun; its opening verse is:
असाधना अपि प्राज्ञा बुद्धिमनोत् बहु-श्रुताः । साधयन्त्य् आशु कार्याणि काकाखु-मृग-कूर्मवत् ॥
Even without means, wise people—buddhimanot as transmitted is uncertain, apparently “intelligent”—and widely learned quickly accomplish undertakings, like the crow, the mouse, the deer, and the tortoise.
