Arthashastra 3.16.7: Dharmasthiya, Adhyaya 16, Sutra 7
रोषदानं परहिंसायां राज्ञामुपरि दर्पदानं च ॥ कZ_०३.१६.०७ ॥
roṣadānaṃ parahiṃsāyāṃ rājñāmupari darpadānaṃ ca
गुस्से में जब कोई दूसरों को हर्ट करने के लिए कुछ दे, वो भी गलत है। और अपनी घमंड में राजा के खिलाफ कुछ देना, वो भी ठीक नहीं है। इन दोनों हालत में दिया हुआ दान सही नहीं माना जाता।
