Verse 64.601
शूरो च भवति दृढव्रत अप्रमत्तो न कामभोगे सुरतिं जनेति ।
नैष्क्रम्यतो भवति अदीनचित्तो छोरेत्व जालं जिनचेतियेषु ॥ ६०१ ॥
śūro ca bhavati dṛḍhavrata apramatto na kāmabhoge suratiṃ janeti |
naiṣkramyato bhavati adīnacitto choretva jālaṃ jinacetiyeṣu || 601 ||
He becomes valiant, firmly devout, alert, and takes no delight in the enjoyment of pleasures of sense. He who has spread a net over the Conqueror’s shrines, withdrawing from the world becomes high-minded. (601)
