Verse 64.349
शीलं व पूजेतु शास्तु शासने सुप्रतिष्ठितो ।
दुःशीलो छम्भितो दूरं न सो बुद्धस्य श्रावको ॥ ३४९ ॥
śīlaṃ va pūjetu śāstu śāsane supratiṣṭhito |
duḥśīlo chambhito dūraṃ na so buddhasya śrāvako || 349 ||
Let him who stands faithfully by the Master’s teaching honour morality. The immoral man is driven far away; he is not a disciple of the Buddha. (349)
