अन्यान् परिवदन् साधुर्यथा हि परितप्यते  
तथा परिवदन्नन्यांस्तुष्टो भवति दुर्जनः ॥ ५२१

Anyan parivadan sadhuryatha hi paritapyate
Tatha parivadannanyamstushto bhavati durjanah

Just as a good man repents speaking ill of others
an evil man feels gratified about speaking ill of others.

कामक्रोधग्राहवतीं पञ्चेन्द्रियजलां नदीम् ।
नावं धृतिमयीं कृत्वा जन्मदुर्गाणि सन्तर ॥ ५२२

Kamakrodhagrahavatim panchendriyajalam nadim
Navam dhrutimayim krutva janmadurgani santara

In the river representing your five senses with monsters of desire and anger
Make a boat and cross over to be rid of waves of repeated births.

याति न्यायप्रवृत्तस्य तिर्यञ्चोऽपि सहायताम् ।
अपन्थानां तु गच्छन्तं सोदरोऽपि विमुञ्चति ॥ ५२३

Yati nyayapravruttasya tiryancho api sahayatam
Apanthanam tu gachchantam sodaro api vimunchati

A person on the right path is guided even by birds.
A person on an evil path is not helped even by his brother.

अङ्गारसदृशी नारी घृतकुम्भसमः पुमान् ।
तस्मान्नारीषु संसर्ग दूरतः परिवर्जयेत् ॥ ५२४

Angarasadrushi nari ghrutakumbhasamah puman
Tasmannarishu samsarga duratah parivarjayet

A woman is like burning coal and a man like a jar of ghee.
Therefore, any interaction with a woman must be from a distance.

शकटं पञ्चहस्तेषु दशहस्तेषु वाजिनम्
गजं हस्तसहस्रेण दुष्टं दूरेण वर्जयेत् ॥ ५२५

Shakatam panchahasteshu dashahasteshu vajinam |
Gajam hastasahasrena dushtam durena varjayet ||

Maintain a distance of 5 feet when a cart passes by, a distance of 10 feet
when a horse passes by, a distance of 1000 feet with the elephant.
Stay as far away as possible from an evil person.
