Chanakya Neeti 1 6
आपदर्थे धनं रक्षेद्दारान् रक्षेद्धनैरपि । आत्मानं सततं रक्षेद्दारैरपि धनैरपि ॥6ll
dhanaṁ rakṣēddārān rakṣēd'dhanairapi. Ātmānaṁ satataṁ rakṣēddārairapi dhanairapi.
व्यक्ति को आने वाली मुसीबतो से निबटने के लिए धन संचय करना चाहिए। उसे धन-सम्पदा त्यागकर भी पत्नी की सुरक्षा करनी चाहिए। लेकिन यदि आत्मा की सुरक्षा की बात आती है तो उसे धन और पत्नी दोनो को तुच्छ समझना चाहिए।
Hindi Translation
One should save his money against hard times, save his wife at the sacrifice of his riches, but invariably one should save his soul even at the sacrifice of his wife and riches.
