संभावितस्त्वशक्तश्चेत्तस्य नायं परोऽपि वा । एवं संचिंत्य वेगेन समुत्तस्थौ महाबलः
saṃbhāvitastvaśaktaścettasya nāyaṃ paro'pi vā | evaṃ saṃciṃtya vegena samuttasthau mahābalaḥ
“ଅଶକ୍ତ ହୋଇ ମଧ୍ୟ ଯଦି କାହାକୁ ସମ୍ମାନ ମିଳେ, ତେବେ ସତ୍ୟରେ ନ ଏହି ଲୋକ ତାହାର, ନ ପରଲୋକ।” ଏଭଳି ଚିନ୍ତା କରି ସେ ମହାବଳୀ ବେଗରେ ଉଠିପଡ଼ିଲା।

Dharma condemns hollow prestige; responsibility should match capacity, and self-knowledge must lead to decisive corrective action.
