gurūnahatvā hi mahānubhāvāñśreyo bhoktuṃ bhaikṣamapīha loke |
hatvārthakāmāṃstu gurūnihaiva bhuñjīya bhogānrudhirapradigdhān || 5 ||
Surely it would be better even to eat the bread of beggary in this life than to slay these great-souled masters. But if I kill them, even in this world, all my enjoyment of wealth and desires will be stained with blood.
