Verse 100.25
यो संयतां प्रव्रजितां विहिंसे अन्नेन पानेन निमन्त्रयित्वा ।
तं नालिकेरं शुनखा परत्र प्रसह्य खादन्ति विचेष्टमानं ॥ २५ ॥
yo saṃyatāṃ pravrajitāṃ vihiṃse annena pānena nimantrayitvā |
taṃ nālikeraṃ śunakhā paratra prasahya khādanti viceṣṭamānaṃ || 25 ||
And as for Nalikera who violated the self-controlled religious men after inviting them to eat and drink with him, in the other world dogs attack him and devour him as he lies writhing on the ground. (25)
