Adhyaya 34 — Madālāsā’s Instruction on Sadācāra (Householder Conduct, Purity, and Daily Rites)
प्रत्यवायभयात् काम्यस्तथान्यश्चाविरोधवान् ।
द्विधा कामोऽपि गदितस्त्रिवर्गस्याविरोधतः ॥
pratyavāyabhayāt kāmyas tathānyaś cāvirodhavān | dvidhā kāmo 'pi gaditas trivargasyāvirodhataḥ ||
காம்ய (விருப்பத்தால் உந்தப்படும்) செயல், பிராத்யவாய (தீய விளைவு) அச்சத்தால் தொடங்கப்படுகிறது; மற்றொரு வகை தர்மத்துடன் முரண்படாதது. ஆகவே, திரிவர்க்கத்திற்கு எதிராகாமல் காமமும் இருவகை எனக் கூறப்படுகிறது.
