अकर्तव्यं न कर्तव्यं प्राणै: कण्ठगतैरपि ।
कर्तव्यमेव कर्तव्यं प्राणै: कण्ठगतैरपि ॥
akartavyaṃ na kartavyaṃ prāṇai: kaṇṭhagatairapi .
kartavyameva kartavyaṃ prāṇai: kaṇṭhagatairapi ..
Whatever is not right to be done, must never be done even on pain of death; and what is right to do, must be done even if one should die for the same.
