Protection of the Refuge-Seeker: Opening of the Kapota Narrative
Devanagari script
“किसी यथार्थ कारणसे शत्रुके मनमें विश्वास उत्पन्न करके जब कभी उसका पैर लड़खड़ाता देखे अर्थात् उसे कमजोर समझे तभी उसपर प्रहार कर दे ।।
Translation
ସତ୍ୟସଦୃଶ କାରଣ ଦେଖାଇ ପ୍ରଥମେ ଶତ୍ରୁର ମନରେ ବିଶ୍ୱାସ ଜଗାଇ, ଯେତେବେଳେ ତାହାର ପଦକ୍ଷେପ ଲଡ଼ଖଡ଼ାଏ—ଅର୍ଥାତ୍ ସେ ଦୁର୍ବଳ ବୋଧ ହୁଏ—ସେତେବେଳେ ହିଁ ପ୍ରହାର କର। ଯାହା ଶଙ୍କାଯୋଗ୍ୟ ନୁହେଁ, ତାହାରେ ମଧ୍ୟ ଶଙ୍କା କର; ଏବଂ ଯାହା ଶଙ୍କିତ, ତାହାଠାରୁ ତ ନିତ୍ୟ ଶଙ୍କା ରଖ। କାରଣ ନିଶ୍ଚିନ୍ତତାରୁ ଜନ୍ମିଥିବା ଭୟ ମୂଳସହିତ ନାଶ କରେ।
