मानसतीर्थ-शौचप्रशंसा | Praise of the ‘Mental Tīrtha’ and the Marks of Purity
यस्तु कल्यं तथा सायं भुञज्जानो नान्तरा पिबेत्
bhīṣma uvāca | yastu kalyaṃ tathā sāyaṃ bhuñjāno nāntarā pibet, ahiṃsāparāyaṇaḥ san nityam agnihotraṃ juhuyāt, tasya ṣaḍbhir varṣaiḥ siddhiḥ prāpyate—atra na saṃśayaḥ |
ພີສະມະກ່າວວ່າ: ຜູ້ໃດກິນແຕ່ເວລາເຊົ້າແລະເວລາແລງ ແລະບໍ່ດື່ມແມ່ນແຕ່ນ້ຳໃນຊ່ວງກາງ ພ້ອມທັງຕັ້ງໝັ້ນໃນອະຫິງສາ ແລະປະກອບອັກນິໂຫຕຣະທຸກມື້ ຈະບັນລຸຄວາມສຳເລັດທາງຈິດວິນຍານໃນຫົກປີ—ບໍ່ມີຄວາມສົງໄສເລີຍ.
