ξε
Those who desire salvation should follow a religion which is permeated with (the spirit of) compassion for living beings, for a living being attains immortality only by abstaining from the killing of all animate nature,
भव- जलही - तरी तुल्लं महल्ल-कल्लाण- दुम-अमय - कुल्लं । संजणिय- लग्ग - सिव-सुक्ख समुदयं कुणह जीव- दयं ॥ १४६ ॥
भवजलधितरीतुल्यां महाकल्याणद् मामृतकुल्याम् । संजनितस्वर्गशिवसौख्यसमुदयां कुरुत जीवदयाम् ॥ १४६ ॥
Be compassionate to living beings-compassion which confers all the happiness, welfare and heaven, which is like a vessel in the ocean of life and which is like an undying channel for conveying the ambrosial fluid.
