398 GENE RAL SURVEY AND CONCLUSIONS
The sight of another's luck may not make me envi. ous with his lot!
May my desire be ever for dealings fair and straight, and may my heart only delight in doing good to others to the best of my abilities all the days of my life!
मैत्री भाव जगत में मेरा सब जीवों से नित्य रहे, दीन दुखी जीवों पर मेरे उर से करुणा स्त्रोत बहे । दुर्जन-कर-कुमार्ग रतों पर लोभ नहीं मुझको आवे, साम्य भाव रक्खू मैं उन पर ऐसी परिणति हो जावे ॥ ५ ॥
May I always entertain a feeling of friendliness for all living beings in the world;
May the spring of sympathy in my heart be ever bubbling for those in agony and affliction.
May I never feel angry with the vile, the vicious and the wrongly.directed ;
May there be such an adjustment of things that I should always remain tranquil in dealing with them!
गुणी जनों को देख हृदय में मेरे प्रेम उमड़ आवे, बने जहां तक उनकी सेवा करके यह मन सुख पावे । होऊँ नहीं कृतघ्न कभी मैं द्रोह न मेरे उर आवे, गुण-ग्रहण का भाव रहे नित दृष्टि न दोषों पर जावे ॥६॥
May my heart ever overflow with love at the sight of virtuous men;
May this mind (of mine] rejoice always in serving them to the utmost of its power ;
May I be never ungrateful ;
