Parāśara’s Counsel on बुद्धि (Discernment), Karma-Consequences, and Avoidance of Pāpānubandha Actions

Devanagari script

एतत्‌ त्वां मामकं तेज: समाविशति वासव । व्यग्रमेनं त्वमप्येन॑ वज़ेण जहि दानवम्‌,वासव! लो, यह मेरा तेज तुम्हारे शरीरमें प्रवेश करता है। इस समय दानव वृत्र ज्वरके कारण बहुत व्यग्र हो रहा है; इसी अवस्थामें तुम वज़से इसे मार डालो

Transliteration

etat tvāṃ māmakam tejaḥ samāviśati vāsava | vyagram enaṃ tvam apy enaṃ vajreṇa jahi dānavam ||

Translation

Wika ni Maheshvara: “O Vāsava, ang aking banal na lakas ay pumapasok na ngayon sa iyo. Ang Dānava na si Vṛtra ay sa sandaling ito’y nababalisa at naghihirap dahil sa lagnat; sa gayong kalagayan, patumbahin mo siya gamit ang iyong vajra.”
