यज्ञसे भावित (पुष्ट) हुए देवता भी तुमलोगोंको (बिना माँगे ही) कर्तव्य-पालनकी आवश्यक सामग्री देते रहेंगे। इस प्रकार उन देवताओंसे प्राप्त हुई सामग्रीको दूसरोंकी सेवामें लगाये बिना जो मनुष्य स्वयं ही उसका उपभोग करता है, वह चोर ही है।

शोध संदर्भResearch context · not scriptureComparative Research Noteशोध टिप्पणी
यज्ञसे भावित (पुष्ट) हुए देवता भी तुमलोगोंको (बिना माँगे ही) कर्तव्य-पालनकी आवश्यक सामग्री देते रहेंगे। आदत और परिणाम एक चक्र बनाते हैं: जो बार-बार किया जाता है, वह अगली प्रवृत्ति को मजबूत करता है। यह पंक्ति कर्म को उसी चक्र के रूप में देखती है, भाग्य के आकस्मिक प्रहार के रूप में नहीं।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
