Umā–Maheśvara-saṃvāda: Varṇa-bhraṃśa, Ācāra (Vṛtta), and Karmic Ascent/Decline
आजन्मनां शतं चैव नरके पच्यते तु सः । निष्कृतिं च न तस्यापि अनुमन्यन्ति कहिचित्
ājānmanāṁ śataṁ caiva narake pacyate tu saḥ | niṣkṛtiṁ ca na tasyāpi anumaṇyanti kahicit ||
دھرم نے کہا— وہ شخص یقیناً سو جنموں تک دوزخ میں پکایا جاتا ہے؛ اور اس کے لیے کسی کے نزدیک بھی کبھی کوئی کفّارہ منظور نہیں ہوتا۔
