विस्तरा: क्लेशसंयुक्ता: संक्षेपास्तु सुखावहा: । परार्थ विस्तरा: सर्वे त्यागमात्महितं विदु:
Translation
Le développement au long cours s’accompagne de peine; la concision, elle, apporte la joie. Toute extension des actes vise un but extérieur—satisfaire le mental et les sens—; mais le renoncement (tyāga) est reconnu par les sages comme ce qui sert le mieux son propre bien.
