Recite 2.5

गुरूनहत्वा हि महानुभावान्
श्रेयो भोक्तुं भैक्ष्यमपीह लोके।
हत्वार्थकामांस्तु गुरूनिहैव
भुञ्जीय भोगान् रुधिरप्रदिग्धान् ॥

Say itgurūnahatvā hi mahānubhāvān
śhreyo bhoktuṁ bhaikṣhyamapīha loke
hatvārtha-kāmāṁstu gurūnihaiva
bhuñjīya bhogān rudhira-pradigdhān

Better it is, indeed, in this world to accept alms than to slay the most noble teachers. But if I were to kill them, even in this world, all my enjoyments of wealth and fulfilled desires would be stained with their blood.

Listen

Hear it first. This recording reads the verse slowly, word by word, with the joins between words opened up. Turn on Repeat after me to say it back in the pauses.

Recite

Say the whole verse at your own pace. Recording stops by itself a few seconds after you finish.

Tap and recite

Your progress

A Good earns a check mark. Two Goods on different days mark the verse learned, then reviews come back after 1, 3, 7 and 21 days.
