Shloka 14
असंतोषादिदोष-निरूपणम्
On the Faults of Discontent and the Discipline of Detachment
निरामिषा न शोचन्ति शोचसि त्वं किमामिषम् | परित्यज्यामिषं सर्व मृषावादात् प्रमोक्ष्यसे
nirāmiṣā na śocanti śocasi tvaṁ kim āmiṣam | parityajyāmiṣaṁ sarvaṁ mṛṣāvādāt pramokṣyase ||
Ang mga malaya sa pagnanasa sa mga bagay ng pandama ay hindi nagdadalamhati. Bakit ka nga ba nagdadalamhati dahil sa mga ligaya at aliw? Talikuran mo ang lahat ng bagay na ninanais, at ikaw ay mapapalaya sa gapos ng kasinungalingan.

Educational Q&A
Grief is rooted in attachment to sense-pleasures; by renouncing craving for enjoyments, one becomes steady and is freed from the moral downfall associated with falsehood.
Yudhiṣṭhira addresses another person in a moral-exhortative tone, contrasting the untroubled state of the desireless with the anxiety of one still attached to pleasures, and urges renunciation as a path to liberation from untruth.
