महादेव्याः आविर्भाव-रूपान्तर-विहारवर्णनम्
Manifestation, Forms, and Divine Play of the Mahādevī
बन्धूनां चैव मित्राणामिष्टार्थे तु त्रिपादकम् / अर्थं कलत्रपुत्रार्थे स्वात्मार्थे न तु किञ्चन
bandhūnāṃ caiva mitrāṇāmiṣṭārthe tu tripādakam / arthaṃ kalatraputrārthe svātmārthe na tu kiñcana
For the cherished good of kinsmen and friends, one should give three quarters (of one’s wealth); for the sake of wife and sons, (some) wealth; but for one’s own selfish end—nothing at all.
