मातङ्ग–शक्रसंवादः
Mataṅga–Śakra Dialogue on Tapas, Status, and Moral Qualities
जात्यन्धैरिह तुल्यास्ते मृत: पड़गुभिरेव च । समर्था ये न पश्यन्ति गड़ां पुण्यजलां शिवाम्
jātyandhair iha tulyās te mṛtāḥ paṅgubhir eva ca | samarthā ye na paśyanti gaṅgāṃ puṇyajalāṃ śivām ||
ສິດທາກ່າວວ່າ: ໃນໂລກນີ້ ຜູ້ມີຄວາມສາມາດແຕ່ບໍ່ໄດ້ເບິ່ງແມ່ນ້ຳຄົງຄາອັນເປັນມົງຄຸນ ທີ່ນ້ຳບໍລິສຸດ—ກໍບໍ່ດີກວ່າຄົນຕາບອດແຕ່ເກີດ ຄົນພິການ ຫຼືແມ່ນກະທັ້ງຄົນຕາຍ.
सिद्ध उवाच
Educational Q&A
If one has the capacity to seek what is purifying and auspicious (symbolized by seeing the holy Gaṅgā) but still neglects it, that neglect renders one spiritually inert—comparable to blindness, lameness, or death.
A Siddha delivers a pointed moral observation: the holy Gaṅgā is available as a source of auspicious purification, and those who are able yet fail to go and behold her are censured through strong comparisons.
