Shloka 31

Devanagari script

कषायवर्जिति ज्ञानं येषामुत्पद्यते चलम्‌ । यान्ति ते5पि परॉल्लोकान्‌ विमुच्यन्ते यथाबलम्‌,जिन्हें राग आदि दोषोंसे रहित अस्थायी ज्ञान प्राप्त होता है, वे भी उत्तम लोकोंको प्राप्त होते हैं। तदनन्तर साधन-बलसे पूर्ण ज्ञान प्राप्त करके वे मोक्ष प्राप्त कर लेते हैं

Translation

Those in whom knowledge arises—though still unsteady—yet free from stains such as passion and attachment, they too attain the higher worlds. Thereafter, by the strength of their discipline, they gain full knowledge and win liberation.
