शमिताविं प्रहाय पुण्यपापं भवसंयोजनसंक्षये रतं ।
शान्तं सुविभक्तमानसं तं जनो गरहति अनंगनं ॥ ५१ ॥
śamitāviṃ prahāya puṇyapāpaṃ bhavasaṃyojanasaṃkṣaye rataṃ |
śāntaṃ suvibhaktamānasaṃ taṃ jano garahati anaṃganaṃ || 51 ||
Him, the sinless, do these men revile, him who is tranquil, who has abandoned sin, who rejoices in the falling off of the fetters of existence, who is calm and well-controlled in mind. (51)
