Mataṅga–Śakra Dialogue on Tapas, Status, and Moral Qualities
यस्तु सूर्येण निष्टप्तं गाड़ेयं पिबते जलम् । गवां निहरिनिर्मुक्तादू यावकात् तद् विशिष्यते
yastu sūryeṇa niṣṭaptaṃ gāḍeyaṃ pibate jalam | gavāṃ nihariniḥmuktād yāvakāt tad viśiṣyate ||
ພຣະສິດທະກ່າວວ່າ: «ຜູ້ໃດດື່ມນ້ຳທີ່ຖືກແດດເຜົາໃຫ້ອຸ່ນ—ນ້ຳທີ່ຕັກມາຈາກແຫຼ່ງນ້ຳລຶກແລະໝັ້ນຄົງ—ຜູ້ນັ້ນໄດ້ຄວາມບໍລິສຸດຍິ່ງກວ່າການກິນໂຈກຂ້າວບາເລທີ່ເຮັດຈາກເມັດທີ່ຄັດອອກຈາກຂີ້ງົວ».
सिद्ध उवाच
Inner and practical purity can be achieved through simple disciplined habits; drinking sun-warmed water from a proper source is presented as more purifying than a contrived or extreme food practice involving barley recovered from cattle-dung.
A Siddha (accomplished ascetic) is instructing about comparative merit and purification, ranking everyday acts of restraint and cleanliness above unusual or showy practices, thereby guiding ethical living and ascetic discipline.
