Devanagari script
सर्ववेदेषु वा स्नान सर्वभूतेषु चार्जवम् । उभे एते समे स्यातामार्जवं वा विशिष्यते
Transliteration
sarvavedeṣu vā snānaṁ sarvabhūteṣu cārjavam | ubhe ete same syātām ārjavaṁ vā viśiṣyate ||
Translation
മഹാദേവൻ അരുളിച്ചെയ്തു—സർവ്വവേദങ്ങളിലും വിധിച്ച ശുദ്ധിസ്നാനം ചെയ്യുന്നതോ, അല്ലെങ്കിൽ സർവ്വജീവികളോടും ആർജവം (സരളത/നേര്മ) പാലിക്കുന്നതോ—ഇവ രണ്ടും സമമാണെന്ന് കരുതാം; എങ്കിലും ആർജവം തന്നെയാണ് ശ്രേഷ്ഠം.
