સબ જીવનકું હિત કરે, મનસા વાચા કર્મ; પરહિત આપ દુઃખ સહે, એહે દયા ઓર ધર્મ.

saba jīvanakuṁ hita karē, manasā vācā karma; parahita āpa duḥkha sahē, ēhē dayā ōra dharma.

Literally: To wish well to all living beings in thought, word, and deed; to bear suffering oneself for the benefit of others, this is compassion and religion.
What it means: True righteousness and compassion lie in actively seeking the welfare of all creatures and willingly enduring personal hardship for the sake of others.
