Translation

O King, a saintly person is just like water because he is free from all contamination, gentle by nature, and by speaking creates a beautiful vibration like that of flowing water. Just by seeing, touching or hearing such a saintly person, the living entity is purified, just as one is cleansed by contact with pure water. Thus a saintly person, just like a holy place, purifies all those who contact him because he always chants the glories of the Lord.

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

जिस प्रकार जल स्वभावसे ही स्वच्छ, चिकना, मधुर और पवित्र करनेवाला होता है तथा गंगा आदि तीर्थोंके दर्शन, स्पर्श और नामोच्चारणसे भी लोग पवित्र हो जाते हैं—वैसे ही साधकको भी स्वभावसे ही शुद्ध, स्निग्ध, मधुरभाषी और लोकपावन होना चाहिये। जलसे शिक्षा ग्रहण करनेवाला अपने दर्शन, स्पर्श और नामोच्चारणसे लोगोंको पवित्र कर देता है॥ ४४॥

स्रोत-खंड सीमा · यह हिन्दी अंश गीता प्रेस डिजिटल पाठ में इस दृश्य श्लोक-इकाई के बाद आता है; इसे स्वतः एक-से-एक टीका या संस्करण-समानता नहीं माना गया है।
