(४) एकत्व-भावना
(मालिनीवृत्तम् ) मम गृहवनमाला वाजिशाला ममेयं, गजवृषभगणा मे भृत्यसार्था ममेमे । वदति सति ममैवं मृत्युमापद्यसे चेअहि तव किमपि स्याद्धर्ममेकं विनान्यत् ॥२६॥
Meaning :- Oh! simple-minded person ! whenever you come across any one, you say that that mansion belongs to you, that that garden is exclusively got ready for your use, that that stable has been made by you for your horses, that those elephants belong to you for the purpose of ridding, that those bulls are spcially bought for your enjoyment and use, and those servants are under your sole, direct control. Thus you say to every one that they all either belong to you or are for your entire use and enjoyment. But Oh! you! simple-- minded person ! please tell me which of all these belongings of yours will accompany you, when you wil be on your way to death ? Believe assuredly that you have to go alone, unaccompanied by any one; nothing is to come with you and nothing will be yours solely. (26)
