मांसपरिवर्जन-प्रशंसा (Praise of Abstention from Meat) / Ethics of Ahiṃsā in Diet and Rite
एवं खलु समायुक्तो रमते विगतज्वरः । रूपवान् कीर्तिमांश्वैव धनवांश्वोपपद्यते,इस प्रकार अन्न-दानमें संलग्न हुआ पुरुष निश्चिन्त हो सुखका अनुभव करता है और रूपवान, कीर्तिमान् तथा धनवान होता है
evaṁ khalu samāyukto ramate vigatajvaraḥ | rūpavān kīrtimāṁś caiva dhanavāṁś copapadyate ||
ယုဓိဋ္ဌိရက ပြောသည်—«ဤသို့ သင့်လျော်စွာ ပါဝင်ကျင့်သုံးသူ (အထူးသဖြင့် အစာပေးလှူခြင်း၏ သီလ) သည် စိတ်ပူပန်မှုနှင့် ဒုက္ခကင်း၍ ပျော်ရွှင်စွာ နေထိုင်ရ၏။ ထို့ပြင် ရုပ်ရည်လှပမှု၊ ကောင်းသောဂုဏ်သတင်းနှင့် ဥစ္စာဓနကိုလည်း ရရှိလာသည်»။
