One man utters from his lips words that are harsh. Stung by them the other burns day and night. Those words pierce the very heart of another. Therefore, the learned men should never utter such (harsh) words towards others.
समुच्चरन्त्यतिवादाश्च वक्त्राद् पैराहतः शोचति रात्र्यहानि। परस्य नामर्मसु ते पतन्त तान् पण्डितो नावसृजेत् परेषु॥
