Pāli Word a Day for April 30, 2020
gambhīra — deep, profound, unfathomable, well founded, hard to perceive

Yo na hanti na ghāteti,
na jināti na jāpaye,
mettaṃso sabbabhūtānaṃ,
veraṃ tassa na kenacī.

One who does not strike nor makes others strike,
who robs not nor makes others rob,
sharing love with all that live,
finds enmity with none.

Itivuttaka 1.27
