वृक्षांश्छित्त्वा पशून् हत्वा कृत्वा रुधिरकर्दमम्। यद्येवं गम्यते स्वर्गं नरकः केन गम्यते॥
vṛkṣāṁś chittvā paśūn hatvā kṛtvā rudhira-kardamam। yady evaṁ gamyate svargaṁ narakaḥ kena gamyate॥
If heaven is to be reached by felling trees, slaughtering animals and making a mire of blood, then by what deed is hell to be reached? This pointed verse questions the cruelty of rituals and acts that destroy life, and upholds compassion and non-violence as the true path of dharma.
