अम्बरीषगाथा—गुणत्रयविभागः तथा लोभनिग्रहः
Ambarīṣa’s Gāthā: The Guṇas and the Restraint of Greed
Devanagari script
लोभाद्धि जायते तृष्णा ततत्रिन्ता प्रवर्तते । स लिप्यमानो लभते भूयिष्ठं राजसान् गुणान् । तदवाप्तौ तु लभते भूयिष्ठं तमसान् गुणान्
Translation
لالچ سے ہی حرص (تृष्णा) پیدا ہوتی ہے اور حرص سے فکر و اندیشہ چل پڑتا ہے۔ لالچ میں لتھڑا ہوا انسان پہلے بہت سے راجس گُن اپنا لیتا ہے؛ اور جب وہ حاصل ہو جائیں تو اس میں تامس گُن اور بھی زیادہ بڑھ جاتے ہیں۔
