गती: सहस्राणि च पञठच तस्य चत्वारि संवर्तकृतानि चैव । विमुक्तमेनं निरयाच्च विद्धि सर्वेषु चान्येषु च सम्भवेषु
Translation
Ô Daitya, il atteint dix-neuf mille voies d’existence ; et il en est encore quatre qui sont causes de la dissolution et du reploiement du monde (saṃvarta). Sache qu’alors il est délivré de l’enfer ; et, dans toutes les autres naissances (hors l’humaine), il n’y a que l’épreuve du plaisir et de la douleur.
