ततो जग्राह स श्वाड़ं जीवितार्थी महामुनि: । सदारस्तामुपाह्त्य वने भोक्तुमियेष सः,जीवित रहनेकी इच्छावाले उन महामुनिने कुत्तेके शरीरके उस एक भागको ग्रहण कर लिया और उसे वनमें ले जाकर पत्नीसहित खानेका विचार किया
Transliteration
tato jagrāha sa śvāḍaṃ jīvitārthī mahāmuniḥ | sadārastām upāhṛtya vane bhoktum iyeṣa saḥ ||
Translation
そのとき大聖仙は、生き永らえんとの思いに駆られて、犬の肉の一部を手に取った。妻を伴いそれを携えて森へ赴き、そこで食そうとした――この一幕は、ただ生き延びることとダルマ（法）の抑制とのあいだに横たわる道徳的緊張を鮮烈に浮かび上がらせる。
