निर्वेदं निर्वृतिं तृप्तिं शान्तिं सत्यं दमं क्षमाम् । सर्वभूतदयां चैव विद्धि मां शरणागतम् ॥
nirvedaṃ nirvṛtiṃ tṛptiṃ śāntiṃ satyaṃ damaṃ kṣamām | sarvabhūtadayāṃ caiva viddhi māṃ śaraṇāgatam ||
Know that I have taken refuge in disenchantment, inner peace, contentment, calm, truth, self-restraint, forbearance, and compassion for all beings.
जानो कि मैंने विरक्ति, निर्वृति (भीतरी चैन), तृप्ति, शांति, सत्य, दम (संयम), क्षमा और सब प्राणियों पर दया की शरण ले ली है।
