salvation to mankind.

2. I have not even gathered the punn karam {good deeds} which open the door of paradise , I

3. The istri {female} of splendid physique and superior bahaviour, I have not even in my
wildest dreams engaged in consummation with her. {He refers to neglecting his own pretty
wife and perpetually searching for other women to engage in lustful activities with}.

4. That is what my janam {birth} was for , the destruction of my Mother's beautiful youth. I
have become a Kuhadha {axe} and destroyed the three Sukh {pleasures} in life.

1. The moth burns when it falls on the naked flame as it does not realise the intensity of the
fire , in the same way the ignorant fish attempts to eat the meat on the hook but ends up
getting caught since it does not realise the ploy of the angler.

2. The elephant falls into the pit/trench that has been set up for it by using a fake female
elephant , the result of which he endures the metal blows on his head. In the same way the
deer is enticed by the sweet melody produced by the hunter not knowing the cunning plan of
the hunter.

3. The bee becomes enveloped in the flower owing to the sweet smell but does not realise that
the flower is slowly closing in on him after dawn , the result of which the ignorant bee loses
his life.

4. Haih! {sigh} there is afsos {sadness} and laughter on myself about the fact that I am fully
aware of the intensity of maha moh {gargantuan attachment} and realise the difference

2. One day either the bhog padarath {physical pleasures} will end or the bhoghi{consumer}

3. When the bhog padarath {physical pleasures} end themselves this results in massive dukh
