Verse 1958

Sanskrit text, Unicode transliteration and English translation by Ganganath Jha:

अदृष्टाश्रुतवृत्तान्ता वराहहरिणादयः ।
सभागगतिसंपर्के प्रयान्त्येव हि विक्रियाम् ॥ १९५८ ॥

adṛṣṭāśrutavṛttāntā varāhahariṇādayaḥ |
sabhāgagatisaṃparke prayāntyeva hi vikriyām || 1958 ||

Boars, bucks and other animals,—who have never seen or heard of the doings,—become perturbed at the touch of females of their own kind.—(1958)

 

Kamalaśīla’s commentary (tattvasaṃgrahapañjikā):

‘Doings’—Intercourse and the like.

‘Sabhāgagati, etc. etc.’—females of the same kind,—i.e. the sow and the doe.

When there is contact—proximity—of these, there is ‘perturbation’—disturbance,—i.e. desire for intercourse.—(1958)
