तमाददानस्तत्रस्थो वा विनाशं प्राप्नोति ॥ कZ_०९.४.०७ ॥
tam ādadānas tatrastho vā vināśaṃ prāpnoti
Celui qui s’empare de cela (le gain à restituer), ou même reste posté là (pour le retenir), court à sa perte.
Because the political, logistical, and legitimacy costs of holding what must be returned can exceed the gain, inviting retaliation and collapse.
