those sand particles
come out deformed as gida (filth) hateful, bad-smelling, disgusting...
All this effect upon us
is of the sramana rich with equanimity." Saying thus in the end
the seth starts taking food, that
again from the side of the urn sarcastic language is used"O listen!
Many times we have met sramanas of dictionary, sramanas of sense are rare;
and,
what is the purpose of that equanimity which is not capable even so much
as to make the frightened one fearless, in time give shelter to the shelterless?
What sort of mockery is this?
Instead of persons putting on the appearance of a sramana
without being afraid of transmigration in
samsara
and blessing by raising the hand of fearlessness
at one who 'comes in shelter,
persons like the assiduous Ram leaping into the battlefield
and raising hand
against the enemies like Rawan
who follow the path of injustice,
can bring on earth sat-yuga in this kali-yuga...
can bring down heaven here.
