अपायभूमिं विजहति अप्रमत्तो सदा च बुद्धं हतरज सत्करोति ।
सदा च भोति बलचक्रवर्ती समन्तलोकं उपगत पुण्यवन्तो ॥ ५९७ ॥

apāyabhūmiṃ vijahati apramatto sadā ca buddhaṃ hataraja satkaroti |
sadā ca bhoti balacakravartī samantalokaṃ upagata puṇyavanto || 597 ||

In his alertness he escapes states of desolation, and always reveres the Buddha, who is rid of passion. He always becomes a strong universal ruler. To all the world around he goes as a virtuous man. (597)
