Varaha Purana 116.26: Adhyaya 116, Shloka 26
An Exposition on the Causes of Happiness and Suffering
शेषमन्नं समश्नाति ततः सौख्यतरं नु किम् ॥ त्रिकालं ये प्रपद्यन्ते मयोक्तेन वसुन्धरे ॥
śeṣam annaṃ samaśnāti tataḥ saukhyataraṃ nu kim || trikālaṃ ye prapadyante mayoktena vasundhare ||
फिर बाकी बचा हुआ खाना खाओ। इससे ज़्यादा खुशी और क्या होगी? दिन में तीन बार जो लोग मेरा बताया हुआ फॉलो करते हैं, उनसे बड़ा कौन होगा?
