Devanagari script
यन्मन्येत ममाभावादस्या भावो भवेदिति । तस्मिन् कुर्वीत विश्वासं यथा पितरि वै तथा,जिसके विषयमें ऐसी मान्यता हो कि मेरे न रहनेपर यह भी नहीं रहेगा, उसपर पिताके समान विश्वास करना चाहिये
Transliteration
yan manyeta mamābhāvād asyā bhāvo bhaved iti | tasmin kurvīta viśvāsaṃ yathā pitari vai tathā ||
Translation
‘ഞാൻ ഇല്ലെങ്കിൽ അവന്റെ നിലനിൽപ്പും/ക്ഷേമവും നിലനിൽക്കില്ല’ എന്ന ഉറച്ച വിശ്വാസം ആരെക്കുറിച്ച് ഉണ്ടോ, അവനിൽ പിതാവിനോടുള്ളതുപോലെ വിശ്വാസം വെക്കണം.
