देवतापितृप्रश्नः — Nārada at Badarīāśrama: the ultimate referent of daiva and pitṛ worship
Devanagari script
श्वः कार्यमद्य कुर्वीत पूर्वाह्न चापराह्निकम् । न हि प्रतीक्षते मृत्यु: कृतं वास्य न वाकृतम्
Translation
जो काम कल करना हो, उसे आज ही कर लेना चाहिए; और जो अपराह्न में करना हो, उसे पूर्वाह्न में ही पूरा कर डालना चाहिए। क्योंकि मृत्यु यह नहीं देखती कि काम हुआ है या नहीं।
