Omens and Consolation after Loss; Reaffirmation of the Saindhava Punishment Vow (उत्पात-दर्शनम्, आश्वासन-वाक्यानि, प्रतिज्ञा-स्थैर्यम्)
सर्वेषां वै प्राणिनां कामरोषौ संत्यज्य त्वं संहरस्वेह जीवान् । एवं धर्मस्त्वां भविष्यत्यनन्तो मिथ्यावृत्तान् मारयिष्यत्यधर्म:,काम और क्रोधका परित्याग करके इस जगत्के समस्त प्राणियोंके प्राणोंका संहार कर। ऐसा करनेसे तुझे अक्षय धर्मकी प्राप्ति होगी। मिथ्याचारी पुरुषोंको तो उनका अधर्म ही मार डालेगा
sarveṣāṃ vai prāṇināṃ kāmaroṣau saṃtyajya tvaṃ saṃharasveha jīvān | evaṃ dharmastvāṃ bhaviṣyaty ananto mithyāvṛttān mārayiṣyaty adharmaḥ ||
Nārada said: “Casting aside desire and anger, carry out here the taking of life among all beings as your appointed task. If you act thus, imperishable dharma will be yours; as for those who live by false conduct, their own adharma will itself bring about their destruction.”
