Translation -
O Lord, make me firm in times of distress. May all the beings look at me with a friendly eye. May I see all the beings with a friendly eye. Thus may we all be looked at with a friendly eye. (1)
Notes -
Drte, from √ट्ट विदारणे, to tear; विदीर्णेऽपि शरीरे जरया, when the body is torn and worn by old age. Drmha mã, make me firm and steady. Bhūtāni, all the beings, not only men, but all the creatures also; also inanimate objects and the forces of Nature. That is the idea of the word 'bhūtāni. ' Please note 'अहं मित्रस्य चक्षुषा समीक्षे' 'वयं मित्रस्य चक्षुषा समीक्षामहे'; I undertake or resolve to look at all the beings with a friendly eye. But in reward, I expect not only myself, but all my fellow creatures also to be seen with a friendly eye.
