असम्यग्वेदनाज्जन्म मोक्षः सम्यगवेक्षणात् ।
असम्यग्वेदनाद्रज्जुः सर्पो नो सम्यगीक्षणात् ॥ ४ ॥

asamyagvedanādrajjuḥ sarpo no samyagīkṣaṇāt 4

4. asamyagvedanāt janma mokṣaḥ samyagavekṣaṇāt
asamyagvedanāt rajjuḥ sarpaḥ na u samyagīkṣaṇāt

4. asamyagvedanāt janma (bhavati); samyagavekṣaṇāt mokṣaḥ (bhavati).
(Yathā) asamyagvedanāt rajjuḥ sarpaḥ (bhāti),
(tathā) samyagīkṣaṇāt no (bhāti).

4. Birth (saṃsāra) arises from imperfect knowledge, while liberation (mokṣa) comes from perfect discernment. Just as a rope is perceived as a snake due to imperfect observation, it is certainly not seen as a snake upon proper examination.
