भ्राम्यता भववनेऽघघर्षणात्काकतालवदिदं सुसाधनम् ।। प्राप्य मूर्ख ! किमु भोगलिप्सया, रत्नमेतदवपात्यतेऽम्बुधौ ॥८९॥
Meaning :- While wandering in the wilderness of this world and while experiencing miseries, the bad karmas became less in number and degree. When this happened, a being got, by fortuitous concourse, all the facilities such as those of a human birth. Aryan country. noble family, healthy body, perfect limbs, long life, and the association with a bonafide teacher. Inspite of this, Oh ! silly man! the want of putting forth attempts on your part to get a jewel in the form of Right Vision or enlightenment, on account of your having been caught up in delusion and on account of your mad love for sensual pleasures is as bad as the throwing away of a wishyielding gem in an ocean for nothing. Therefore, Oh ! good person ! make best endeavour, without wasting away this excellent opportunity. so that the worldly wanderings may further be averted. (89)
