kṛtaṃ kṛtyaṃ prāpaṇīyaṃ prāptam ity eva nityaśaḥ | vyavahāro laukiko vā śāstrīyo vānyathāpi vā | mamākartur alepasya yathārabdhaṃ pravartatām ||24-25||
„Getan ist, was zu tun war; erlangt ist, was zu erlangen war“—so wahrlich immerdar. Möge der Verkehr—weltlich, schriftgemäß oder anders—gemäß dem bereits Begonnenen fortlaufen, für mich, den Nicht-Handelnden und Unberührten.
‘What had to be done is done; what was to be attained is attained’—thus indeed always. Let transaction—worldly or scriptural or otherwise—proceed according to what has already begun, for me who am a non-agent and untouched.
- prāptamityeva = prāptam iti eva
- vānyathāpi = vā anyathā api
- mamākarturaleपस्य = mama akartuḥ alepasya
- yathārabdham = yathā ārabdham
