The only 'virtue' of impure, shameless women despised by the noble is their unreserved availability to those who desire them.
Saints engage in virtuous deeds for others, following the eternal path, without expecting any return.
True nobility includes knowledge, bravery, compassion, discipline, and even-mindedness—qualities of a superior soul.
The fourth virtue is nobility, the fifth is dharma, the sixth is chastity, the seventh is courage, and the eighth is perseverance.
One born in noble land, family, with beauty, strength, intellect and friends, yet neglects dharma is like a boatman who abandons his boat mid-ocean.
Everyone—father, mother, brother, daughter-in-law—enjoys their individual fate, but only the wife shares her husband’s destiny.
She performed the great vow of love, doing penance under the wind of Vindhya, preparing her lips to carry the nectar of union.
Though fickle in words, she is stable in action—excellent in managing the home, and deeply moved by her husband’s sorrow.
The soul acts through the noble and the wicked alike, pervading all, but remains unseen in action.
For a noble soul, noble action is easy; but for such a one to do ignoble deeds is hardest of all.
