Go-apahāra (Cattle Theft), Go-dāna (Cow-Gift), and Suvarṇa-dakṣiṇā (Gold Fee): Karmic Consequence and Purificatory Merit
प्रग्रहैश्नर्मपट्टेश्न तं बद्ध्वा पर्वतोपमम् । नाशवनुवन् समुद्धर्तु ततो जम्मुर्जनार्दनम्
pragrahaiś carmapaṭṭaiś ca taṃ baddhvā parvatopamam | nāśakan nu samuddhartum tato jagmur janārdanam ||
ພີສະມະ ກ່າວວ່າ: «ເຂົາໄດ້ມັດສັດນັ້ນທີ່ໃຫຍ່ດັ່ງພູ ດ້ວຍເຊືອກ ແລະ ສາຍຫນັງ ແຕ່ກໍຍັງດຶງຂຶ້ນບໍ່ໄດ້. ເມື່ອບໍ່ສາມາດຊັກມັນອອກໄດ້ ພວກເຂົາຈຶ່ງໄປຫາ ຊະນາຣະດະນະ (ພຣະສີກຣິດສະນາ)».
