तृणानि भूमिरुदकं वाक्चतुर्थी च सूनृता।

एतान्यपि सतां गेहे नोच्छिद्यन्ते कदाचन॥ १२4१

 

Trunani bhumirudakam vakchaturthi cha sunruta l

Etanyapi satam gehe nochchidyante kadachana ll

 

Grass, land, water and the fourth having pleasant and honest speech,

these are never severed off from of righteous persons.

 

सर्वहिंसानिवृत्ता ये नराः सर्वसहाश्च ये ।

सर्वस्याश्रयभताश्च ते नराः स्वर्गगामिनः ॥ १२4२

 

Sarvahimsanivrutta ye narah sarvasahashcha ye l

Sarvasyashrayabhatashcha te narah svargagaminah ll

 

Persons who are away from all violence, who can tolerate everything

and who offer shelter to everyone are ones who live in heaven

 

असूयाविष्टे मनसि यदि संपत् प्रवर्तते ।

तुषाग्निं वायुसंयोगम् इव जानीहि सुव्रत ॥ १२43

 

Asuyavishte manasi yadi saṃpat pravartate l
Tushagnim vayusamyogam iva janihi suvrata ll

 

Understand, good man, that when the mind of a person is filled with envy, his prosperity will only increase his intolerance, as fire fallen on chaff is fanned by breeze. 

 

अन्तस्तिमिरनाशाय शाब्दबोधो निरर्थकः ।

न नश्यति तमो नाम कृतया दीपवार्तया ॥ १२44

 

Antastimiranashaya shābdabodho nirarthakaḥ ।

Na nashyati tamo nama krutaya dīpavartaya ॥

 

Knowing just the meanings of words is not helpful in removing inner darkness.

Darkness does not disappear by talking about light.

 

अव्याकरणमधीतं भिन्नद्रोण्या तरङ्गिणीतरणम् ।

भेषजमपथ्यसहितं त्रयमिदमकृतं वरं न कृतम् ॥ १२45

Avyakaranamadhitam bhinnadronya taraṅginītaranam ।
bheshajamapathyasahitam trayamidamakrutam varam na krutam ॥

Three things are better not done rather than done - learning which has no foundation of grammar, the crossing of a river in a boat that leaks and the use of medicines along with unwholesome diet.
