Adhyaya 34 — Madālāsā’s Instruction on Sadācāra (Householder Conduct, Purity, and Daily Rites)
तत्र पुत्र न ! वस्तव्यं यत्रैतत् त्रितयं सदा ।
जिगीषुः पूर्ववैरश्च जनश्च सततोत्सवः ॥
tatra putra na ! vastavyaṃ yatraitat tritayaṃ sadā / jigīṣuḥ pūrvavairaśca janaśca satatotsavaḥ
परन्तु, हे पुत्र, जहाँ ये तीन सदा हों—विजय-लोलुप शासक (या लोग), पुराना वैर, और निरन्तर उत्सवों में लगे हुए प्रजाजन—वहाँ नहीं रहना चाहिए।
