यथोर्मिणोर्मौ निहते न काचित्पयसां क्षतिः ।
तथा देहेन निहते देहे नास्ति चितेः क्षतिः ॥ ३५ ॥

yathormiṇormau nihate na kācitpayasāṃ kṣatiḥ |
tathā dehena nihate dehe nāsti citeḥ kṣatiḥ || 35 ||

As the breaking of breakers, by the dashing of waves against one another, does no harm to the waters of the sea; so the molestation or destruction of one body by another, does no injury to the inward soul, which is ever impregnable and also indestructible.
