That man who assumes a dreadful aspect for the purpose of taking the lives of other creatures, who arms himself with strong sticks for injuring other creatures, who is seen with uplifted weapons, who kills living creatures, who is shorn of mercy, who always causes tribulation to living beings, who refuses to grant protection to even worms and ants, who is cruel, one who is such, O goddess, sinks in Hell. One who has an opposite disposition and who is righteous in deeds, becomes born as a handsome man.
प्राणातिपाते यो रौद्रो दण्डहस्तोद्यतः सदा। नित्यमुद्यतशस्त्रश्च हन्ति भूतगणान् नरः॥ निर्दयः सर्वभूतानां नित्यमुद्वेगकारकः। अपि कीटपिपीलानामशरण्यः सुनिघृणः॥ एवंभूतो नरो देवि निरयं प्रतिपद्यते। विपरीतस्तु धर्मात्मा रूपवानभिजायते॥
