कपोत-लुब्धकसंवादः — Hunter’s Remorse and Renunciatory Resolve
Devanagari script
परिमुष्णन्ति शास्त्राणि धर्मस्य परिपन्थिन: । वैषम्यमर्थविद्यानां निरर्था: ख्यापयन्ति ते
Translation
Bhishma dit : Les adversaires du dharma pillent l’autorité des śāstra, les déclarant indignes d’être reçus et dépourvus de validité. Et ceux qui sont vides d’intelligence du sens propagent, sans raison, que les sciences de l’artha (artha-śāstra—le savoir de l’intérêt et du gouvernement) sont biaisées et sans valeur.
