## Adipurana, Part Two: Subhashitas (Wise Sayings) **35.119** **35.121, 36.30** **36.73** **36.74** **36.75** **36.176** **36.186** **36.187, 36.117** * "The wise protect their honor, even at the cost of their lives. For honor, once gained, shines forever in the world." * "The learned nourish others with their words, even if they are calculated. A lion, once praised, becomes like a village animal." * "Indeed, a single lion conquers even a group of elephants." * "Who, in their right mind, would desire the harsh objects of desire, which enslave beings and lead them to a chain of misfortunes?" * "Poison, even if it is in one place, may kill or not. But objects of desire kill countless beings, again and again." * "Objects of desire, which are initially pleasing, are ultimately bitter in their consequences. For their sake, the ignorant go to ruin and futility." * "Who, in their wisdom, would indulge in objects of desire, which are extremely alluring at first, but ultimately life-taking, and full of poison and suffering?" * "Struggling to stand on the ground, their bodies trembling, old age falls upon humans, as painful as fever or cold." * "Old age and intoxication, entering the body, quickly bring about weakness, confusion, and slurred speech." * "There is no greater austerity than fire." * "Purity of knowledge is the highest purity of austerity. Knowledge is the root of austerity, just as the root is the foundation of a great tree." * "Austerity, practiced without interruption, bears inexhaustible fruit." * "The minds of the great are like a reservoir, always overflowing with compassion." * "Those things are truly jewels which are useful." * "Austerity, scripture, and birth are the three causes of Brahmanhood. He who possesses austerity and scripture, even if he is not born a Brahman, is truly a Brahman." * "A Kshatriya is one who lives by justice." * "The people are like cows, who give milk according to justice. This is the duty of a king, to ensure justice." * "Know this to be the duty of a king: to earn wealth justly, to increase it, to protect it, and to distribute it to the deserving." * "Ignorance, like a disease, corrupts the family." * "Everything is protected when the king is protected." * "Any teaching that advocates violence is not the Veda, but a harbinger of destruction." * "The Puranas and Dharma Shastras are those which prohibit killing. Any teaching that advocates killing should be known as the creation of a rogue." * "Those mantras are truly auspicious which are used in righteous actions. Those mantras are considered evil which are used for killing." * "To abstain from meat is purity in the realm of food. All those who eat meat are considered impure." * "Those who are free from attachment and compassionate are truly pure in their non-violence. Those who delight in killing animals are not pure, but driven by greed." * "Justice is the practice of compassion, injustice is the killing of living beings." * "Who can destroy darkness except the sun?" **36.148, 36.155, 37.13, 37.119** **38.43, 38.26
