Inquiry into Śreyas, Dharma, and Karma
Devanagari script
वाप्या जल क्षिप्पति वालकोट्या त्वह्ला सकृच्चाप्यथ न द्वितीयम् । तासां क्षये विद्धि परं विसर्ग संहारमेक॑ च तथा प्रजानाम्
Transliteration
vāpyā jalaṁ kṣippati vālakoṭyā tv ahlā sakṛc cāpy atha na dvitīyam | tāsāṁ kṣaye viddhi paraṁ visargaṁ saṁhāram ekaṁ ca tathā prajānām ||
Translation
ภีษมะกล่าวว่า “ดุจเด็กน้อยใช้สันมือสาดน้ำจากบ่อได้เพียงครั้งเดียว มิอาจทำซ้ำครั้งที่สองในทำนองเดียวกัน ฉันใด เมื่อคลังแห่งมันสิ้นลง ก็พึงรู้ว่าเกิด ‘การปล่อยออก’ ครั้งสุดท้าย และมี ‘การถอนกลับ’ เพียงคราวเดียวอันหลีกเลี่ยงมิได้—ฉันนั้นแลแก่หมู่สัตว์ทั้งหลาย”
