Uv. 31.33 & 34 Cittavarga

Sthūlāṁ Sthūlāmvitarkān, gross thoughts (as opposed to sūkṣmāṁ, subtle [thoughts]) may be thought an improvement on the rather obscure Pāḷi khuddāvitakkā, small thoughts, or perhaps, in this context, lowthoughts.⁰¹ vitarkān atha vāpi sūkṣmāṁ,
Samudgatāṁ mānasasaṁplavārtham,
Vitarkayaṁ vai satataṁ vitarkān,
Etāṁ sadā dhāvati bhrāntacittaḥ.

Etāṁs tu vidvāṁ manaso vitarkān,
Ātāpavāṁ saṁvaravāṁ smtātmā.
Jahāty aśeṣān apunarbhavāya,
Samāhito dhyānarataḥ sumedhāḥ.

Uv. 31.53 & 54 Cittavarga

Arakṣitena cittena,
Mithyādṣṭihatena ca, Sanskrit: through unprotected mind (body, in the Pāḷi); through being slaughtered by wrong view (Pāḷi: through attainment of wrong view).⁰³
Stīnamiddhābhibhūtena
Vaśaṁ Mtyor nigacchati.

Tasmād rakṣitacittaḥ syāt,
Samyaksaṁkalpagocaraḥ,
Samyagdṣṭipuraskāro,
Jñātvā caivodayavyayam.
Stīnamiddhābhibhūr bhikṣuḥ
Sarvadurgatayo jahet.

Uv. 31.9 Cittavarga

Na dveṣī dveṣiṇaḥ kuryād,
Vairī vā vairiṇo hitam,
Mithyāpraṇihitaṁ cittaṁ
Yat kuryād ātmanātmanaḥ.

Uv. 31.49 Cittavarga

Yasya śailopamaṁ cittaṁ,
Sthitaṁ nānuprakampate,
Viraktaṁ rajanīyebhyaḥ,
Kopanīye na kupyate,
Yasyaivaṁ bhāvitaṁ cittaṁ
Kutas taṁ duḥkham eṣyati?

Uv. 31.41 Cittavarga

Etaṁ Nāgasya Nāgena
Tv īṣādantasya hastinaḥ
Sameti cittaṁ cittena:
Yad eko ramate vane. These last two verses provide good examples of how the Sanskrit sometimes appears to have been very faithful to the earlier form of the verse, only changing the forms (but not the sense) of its exemplor.⁰⁴

Uv. 31.50 Cittavarga

Nopavādī nopaghātī, This line is rewritten to correct the metre.⁰⁵
Prātimokṣe ca saṁvaraḥ,
Mātrajñatā ca bhakteṣu,
Prāntaṁ ca śayanāsanam,
Adhicitte samāyoga,
- etad Buddhasya The plural in the Pāḷi, which requires elision of its last syllable m.c., is changed into a singular in the Sanskrit to avoid the difficulty. Note, however, that this is the Ovādapātimokkha, and is said in the Pāḷi sources to have been recited by all the Buddhas in the past, so the plural is more appropriate.⁰⁶ śāsanam

Uv. 4-7 Apramādavarga

Adhicetasi mā pramadyata,
Pratataṁ maunapadeṣu śikṣata,
Śokā na bhavanti tāyino
Hy upaśāntasya - sadā smtātmanaḥ.

Uv. 32.4 Bhikṣuvarga

Tudanti vācābhir asaṁyatā janāḥ,
Śarair hi saṁgrāmagataṁ yathā gajam,
Śrutvā tu vācāṁ paruṣām udīritām,
Adhivāsayed bhikṣur aduṣṭacittaḥ.

Uv. 16.12 Prakīrnakavarga

Yo jīvite na tapate
Maraṇānte ca sarvaśaḥ,
Sa vai dṣṭapado dhīraḥ,
Śokamadhye na śocati.

Uv. 32.47 Bhikṣuvarga

Ucchinnabhavatṣṇasya,
Vastucchinnasya bhikṣuṇaḥ, Pāḷi: for the monk whose mind is at peace; Sanksrit: for the monk who has cut off the basis (for rebirth). Also used in the next verse in place of the difficult nettichinnassa of the Pāḷi.⁰⁷
Vikṣīṇo jātisaṁsāro,
Nāstīdānīṁ punarbhavaḥ.

Uv. 32.40 Bhikṣuvarga

Sadopaśāntacittasya This line, meaning: for the one whose mind is always peaceful, replaces the rather awkward phrase in the Pāḷi: for he whose peaceful mind is full of peace.⁰⁸
Vastucchinnasya bhikṣuṇaḥ,
Vikṣīṇo jātisaṁsāro
Mukto 'sau Mārabandhanāt.
