नूनं ह्यार्या: साधव उपशमशीला: कृपणसुहृद एवंविधार्थे स्वार्थानपि गुरुतरानुपेक्षन्ते ॥ १० ॥
nunam hy aryah sadhava upasama-silah krpana-suhrda evam-vidharthe svarthan api gurutaran upeksante.
- nunam
- indeed
- hi
- certainly
- aryah
- those who are advanced in civilization
- sadhavah
- saintly persons
- upasama-silah
- even though completely in the renounced order of life
- krpana-suhrdah
- the friends of the helpless
- evam-vidha-arthe
- to execute such principles
- sva-arthan api
- even their own personal interests
- guru-taran
- very important
- upeksante
- neglect.
Even though one is in the renounced order, one who is advanced certainly feels compassion for suffering living entities. One should certainly neglect his own personal interests, although they may be very important, to protect one who has surrendered.
