रुजा शरीरं जरया च तबलं, यशश्च लोभेन यथा विनश्यति । तथा प्रमादेरखिलो गुणव्रजस्ततः सुखाय श्रयताच्च पौरुषम् ॥६२॥
Meaning :- Just as the body becomes weak due to old age, just as body becomes emaciated on account of diseases, just as fame and good name are lost because of greed, so also mental qualities and spiritual merits also become destroyed due to houghtiness and sensuous pleasures. Therefore, Oh! man ! if you have any desire to meritoriousness and happiness, do not give scope even for a moment to carelessness and exert carefully for a good and right cause. (62)
