Yayāti–Indra Dialogue and Aṣṭaka’s Inquiry

शुक्र उवाच नन्वहं प्रत्यवेक्ष्यस्ते मदधीनो 5सि पार्थिव । मिथ्याचारस्य धर्मेषु चौर्य भवति नाहुष,शुक्राचार्यने कहा--राजन्‌! तुम्हें इस विषयमें मेरे आदेशकी भी प्रतीक्षा करनी चाहिये थी; क्‍योंकि तुम मेरे अधीन हो। नहुषनन्दन! धर्ममें मिथ्या आचरण करनेवाले पुरुषको चोरीका पाप लगता है

śukra uvāca | nanv ahaṃ pratyavekṣyas te mad-adhīno 'si pārthiva | mithyācārasya dharmeṣu cauryaṃ bhavati nāhuṣa-nandana ||

Śukra said: “Surely you ought to have waited for my direction in this matter, O king, for you are under my authority. O descendant of Nahūṣa, when a man behaves falsely while claiming the mantle of dharma, that conduct incurs the sin of theft.”
