जनकने पूछा-<द्विजश्रेष्ठ] इस लोकमें कौन-कौन-से ऐसे धर्मानुकूल कर्म हैं, जिनका अनुष्ठान करते समय कभी किसी भी प्राणीकी हिंसा नहीं होती? ।।
parāśara uvāca śṛṇu me 'tra mahārāja yan māṃ tvaṃ paripṛcchasi | yāni karmāṇy ahiṃsrāṇi naraṃ trāyanti sarvadā ||
阇那迦王问道：“噢，最尊贵的二生者，在此世间，有哪些契合正法的行为，行持之时从不伤害任何有情众生？”帕罗沙罗答曰：“大王，请听我所言，正是你向我所问之事。我将宣说那些离于暴害的行——其行持不损一切众生，并恒常护持、提升于人。”
