[edit] Commentary

  • 1prArabdha – (Previous) actions which have already started bearing fruits; (saJcita – Accumulated actions which are yet to start bearing fruits).
  • 3nepamu – this also means ‘pretext’. In that case, it will be translated as ‘if I show pity, they considered many a pretexts (as to why I show pity)’.
