SRI AUROBINDO

Translations

from Sanskrit and Other Languages

Kalidasa

Bhartrihari. The Century of Life

On Karma

Foresight and Violence

Good be the act or faulty, its result

The wise man painfully forecasting first

Then does; who in mere heedless force exult,

Passionate and violent, taste a fruit accursed.

The Fury keeps till death her baleful course

And blights their life, tormenting with remorse.
