Viṣṇor Māhātmya and Indriya-saṃyama (विष्णोर्माहात्म्यं तथा इन्द्रियसंयमः)

Devanagari script

तस्य तेनानुभावेन मृगहिंसात्मनस्तदा । तपो महत्समुच्छिन्नं तस्माद्धिंसा न यज्ञिया,मैं उस पशुका वध करके स्वर्गलोक प्राप्त करूँगा; यह सोचकर मृगकी हिंसा करनेके लिये उद्यत उस ब्राह्मणका महान्‌ तप तत्काल नष्ट हो गया। इसलिये हिंसा यज्ञके लिये हितकर नहीं है

Transliteration

tasya tenānubhāvena mṛga-hiṃsātmanas tadā | tapo mahatsamucchinnaṃ tasmād dhiṃsā na yajñiyā ||
