न कस्यचिद् भवति प्रदुष्टचित्तो न भोगहानिर् भवते कदाचित् ।
न तस्य नीघो भवति जनस्य धूपेत्व गन्धं जिनचेतियेषु ॥ ५०५ ॥

na kasyacid bhavati praduṣṭacitto na bhogahānir bhavate kadācit |
na tasya nīgho bhavati janasya dhūpetva gandhaṃ jinacetiyeṣu || 505 ||

He does not become malevolent to anyone, nor does he ever suffer loss of wealth. No evil comes to man through him who has burnt incense at the Conqueror’s shrines. (505)
