Path of the impartial---Samchitta padhita.

**1. The sun shines impartially. It shines neither to foster the growth of Chakravaka birds [ a bird that is greatly attached to sun] nor to put down Chakora birds [a bird that thrives only in moonlight]. So do great men, render their duties impartially.

**4.When clouds comedown to the ocean to drink water, no change is seen in the level of the ocean. Similarly great men remain unaffected and remain impartial though their belongings are usurped or are bestowed with gifts.

**7. Diamonds unlike oil lamps need no attendance to shine day and night.Similarly impartial men shine at all times whether felicitated or not . Unlike ordinary men.

**9. An shield that no weapon can cleave or be taken away and guarantees protection at all times are the qualities of determination, patience and endurance.

Path of the great...Mahapurusha paddathi.

** Those who have renounced the world, following the holy path , noble and pure , reading the Vedas and shastras,helping fellow human beings and constantly worshipping the lotus feet of Vishnu are Mahpurusha's.

**Noble is one ,who is not carried away by the opinion of others.Such men are impartial to all . They have the shining lustre of gold! They are worthy of worship even by saints.

**The speed of the river of wealth can astonish and frighten even those who posses it in abundance.But such rivers have no recognition in associations of persons who are enamoured only by the celestial nectarine river of tranquility.

Path of the mean.Dhurupta padathi.

2. If there is no purity of thought ,such a person can never attain fame though he may associate with the good.

3.Even if a person is honest in his dealings,helps others during their troubles and is dear to all and is worthy of conduct in all aspects , he will be considered fallen if he does not follow the path of his ancestors.

5.It is better not to commit any sin at all than to committing them and doing prayachitam--purification-over and over again.

6. A crane stands on one leg and lures its prey by its deceptive harmlessness. Similarily mean minded mean don the mendicants role only to plunder their devotees . This cunningness is despicable.

11.The company and association of those, who pride themselves that they can get away with any evil deed because of their high birth should be shunned .
