Quotation

ཕ་ཤ་ཟ་ཞིང་མ་ལ་རྡེག །

ལས་ངན་དགྲ་བོ་པང་ན་བཟུང༌། །
ཆུང་མས་ཁྱོ་ཡི་རུས་པ་འཆའ། །

འཁོར་བའི་ཆོས་ལ་གད་མོ་བྲོ། །

He eats his father’s flesh while striking his own mother,
And cradles in his lap the enemy he killed,
The wife is gnawing at her husband’s bones.
Saṃsāra is enough to make you laugh out loud!

Kātyāyana
