हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

पृथ्वीके ही विकार पर्वत और वृक्षसे मैंने यह शिक्षा ग्रहण की है कि जैसे उनकी सारी चेष्टाएँ सदा-सर्वदा दूसरोंके हितके लिये ही होती हैं, बल्कि यों कहना चाहिये कि उनका जन्म ही एकमात्र दूसरोंका हित करनेके लिये ही हुआ है, साधु पुरुषको चाहिये कि उनकी शिष्यता स्वीकार करके उनसे परोपकारकी शिक्षा ग्रहण करे॥ ३८॥

स्रोत-खंड सीमा · यह हिन्दी अंश गीता प्रेस डिजिटल पाठ में इस दृश्य श्लोक-इकाई के बाद आता है; इसे स्वतः एक-से-एक टीका या संस्करण-समानता नहीं माना गया है।
