Reparation
1.Tolerating troubles, untroubling others
is right reparation.
2.Reparation suits deserving, if
others trying, futile.
3.By feeding renounced, others
ignored maintaining Tapas?
4.Destroying hostiles, protecting friends
possible by reparation.
5.Accomplishing desires of men
endeavors to Tapas.
6.Ascetics prefer self-reliance others
suffer by desire-nets.
7.As intense-fire brightens pure-gold
ascetics endure sufferings.
8.All beings worship who
possess pride less soul.
9.The power of penance
succeeds even death.
10.Many needy few rich
since non-ascetics more.
