🪷 ŚB 9.19.14

Sanskrit, transliteration, word meanings, and translation for steady Bhāgavata reading.

Sanskrit

न जातु काम: कामानामुपभोगेन शाम्यति । हविषा कृष्णवर्त्मेव भूय एवाभिवर्धते ॥ १४ ॥

Transliteration

na jātu kāmaḥ kāmānām upabhogena śāṁyati haviṣā kṛṣṇa-vartmeva bhūya evābhivardhate
Synonyms
na — not; jātu — at any time; kāmaḥ — lusty desires; kāmānām — of persons who are very lusty; upabhogena — by enjoyment of lusty desires; śāṁyati — can be pacified; haviṣā — by supplying butter; kṛṣṇa-vartmā — fire; iva — like; bhūyaḥ — again and again; eva — indeed; abhivardhate — increases more and more.

Translation

As supplying butter to a fire does not diminish the fire but instead increases it more and more, the endeavor to stop lusty desires by continual enjoyment can never be successful. [In fact, one must voluntarily cease from material desires.]
