sanskrit

'He who, with piety and without malice, covers the faults of the righteous and the wise, as one would conceal holes in his own clothing, surely seeks his own salvation. If a man seeks redemption after committing a sin, there is no doubt that he is cleansed of all his transgressions, and he shines pure and resplendent, like the moon emerging from the clouds.' ।। 3-198-52 ।।

sanskrit
