“Just as a mother would protect her son,
her only son, with her own life,
so one should develop toward all beings
a state of mind without boundaries.” – Snp 1.8
” Mātā yathā niyaṁputtaṁ—
āyusā ekaputtamanurakkhe;
Evampi sabbabhūtesu,
Mānasaṁ bhāvaye aparimāṇaṁ. ”
မိခင်သည် ရင်၌ ဖြစ်သောတစ်ဦးတည်းသားကို
အသက်ရှင်စေရန် အစဉ် စောင့်ရှောက်ဘိသကဲ့သို့ ဤအတူပင်
သတ္တဝါခပ်သိမ်းတို့၌ အတိုင်းအရှည်
မရှိသော မေတ္တာစိတ်ကို ပွါးများရာ၏။
“Giống như người mẹ bảo vệ đứa con trai của mình,
đứa con trai độc nhất, đến trọn đời,
cũng như vậy, đối với tất cả các sanh linh,
nên phát triển tâm ý vô hạn lượng.”
「犹如母亲用生命保护自己的唯一儿子，
对一切众生施以无限的仁慈心。」
