दुर्विनीतः श्रियं प्राप्य विद्यामैश्वर्यमेवच । न तिष्ठति चिरं कालं यथाऽहं मदगर्वितः
durvinītaḥ śriyaṃ prāpya vidyāmaiśvaryamevaca | na tiṣṭhati ciraṃ kālaṃ yathā'haṃ madagarvitaḥ
ଦୁର୍ବିନୀତ ଲୋକ ଶ୍ରୀ, ବିଦ୍ୟା ଓ ଐଶ୍ୱର୍ୟ ପାଇଲେ ମଧ୍ୟ ଦୀର୍ଘକାଳ ଟିକେ ନାହିଁ—ମଦଗର୍ବରେ ଫୁଲିଥିବା ମୋ ପରି।
Andhaka

Without vinaya (discipline) and humility, wealth, knowledge, and power become causes of downfall.
Not specified in this verse.
None; it is an ethical maxim framed as personal testimony.
