On this path, endeavour is never wasted nor repressed. Even a little practice of it protects one from great danger.

Translated by Shri Purohit Swami

In this, there is no loss of effort, nor is there any harm produced, nor any transgression. Even a little of this knowledge protects one from great fear.

Translated by Swami Sivananda

Test yourself
