Devanagari script
यदा मान॑ं लभते माननार्ह- स्तदा स वै जीवति जीवलोके । यदावमानं लभते महान्तं तदा जीवन्मृत इत्युच्यते सः,इस जीवजगत्में माननीय पुरुष जबतक सम्मान पाता है, तभीतक वह वास्तवमें जीवित है। जब वह महान् अपमान पाने लगता है, तब वह जीते-जी मरा हुआ कहलाता है
Transliteration
yadā mānaṁ labhate mānanārhas tadā sa vai jīvati jīvaloke | yadāvamānaṁ labhate mahāntaṁ tadā jīvanmṛta ity ucyate saḥ ||
Translation
Vāyu berkata: “Selama seseorang yang layak dihormati menerima penghormatan, selama itulah dia benar-benar hidup di dunia yang hidup ini. Tetapi apabila dia menerima kehinaan yang besar, maka dia disebut ‘mati walau masih hidup.’”
