य: कल्याणगुणान् ज्ञातीन् मोहाल्लो भाद दिदृक्षते । सो<जितात्माजितक्रोधो न चिरं तिष्ठति श्रियम्,“जो कल्याणमय गुणोंसे युक्त अपने कुटुम्बीजनोंको मोह$ और लोभःकी दृष्टिसे देखना चाहता है, वह अपने मन और क्रोधको न जीतनेवाला पुरुष दीर्घकालतक राजलक्ष्मीका उपभोग नहीं कर सकता

yaḥ kalyāṇa-guṇān jñātīn mohāl lobhād didṛkṣate | so 'jitātmājita-krodho na ciraṁ tiṣṭhati śriyam ||
Translation
Vaiśampāyana said: He who, out of delusion and greed, looks upon his own kinsmen—endowed with noble qualities—as objects to be exploited, being one who has not conquered his mind and anger, does not retain royal prosperity for long.
