Gṛhastha-vṛtti and Niyama: Models of Householder Livelihood and Discipline (गृहस्थवृत्ति-नियमाः)
Devanagari script
उपपन्नं हि यत् प्राज्ञो निस्तरेन्नेतरो जन: । दूरतो गुणदोषीौ हि प्राज्ञ: सर्वत्र पश्यति
Transliteration
upapannaṃ hi yat prājño nistaren netaro janaḥ | dūrato guṇadoṣau hi prājñaḥ sarvatra paśyati ||
Translation
Memang wajar bahawa orang bijaksana dapat menyeberangi (bahaya atau kesukaran), sedangkan orang biasa yang jahil tidak mampu. Kerana yang berakal budi melihat dari jauh, dalam setiap keadaan, baik kelebihan mahupun kekurangan—lalu memilih haluan dengan pandangan jauh.
