Translation

A greedy person accumulates a large quantity of money with great struggle and pain, but the person who has struggled so much to acquire this wealth is not always allowed to enjoy it himself or give it in charity to others. The greedy man is like the bee who struggles to produce a large quantity of honey, which is then stolen by a man who will enjoy it personally or sell it to others. No matter how carefully one hides his hard-earned wealth or tries to protect it, there are those who are expert in detecting the whereabouts of valuable things, and they will steal it.

ŚB 11.8.15 · गीता प्रेस पाठ

न देयं नोपभोग्यं च लुब्धैर्यद् दु:खसंचितम्। भुङ्क्ते तदपि तच्चान्यो मधुहेवार्थविन्मधु॥ १५

हिन्दी भावार्थ

मैंने मधु निकालनेवाले पुरुषसे यह शिक्षा ग्रहण की है कि संसारके लोभी पुरुष बड़ी कठिनाईसे धनका संचय तो करते रहते हैं, किन्तु वह संचित धन न किसीको दान करते हैं और न स्वयं उसका उपभोग ही करते हैं। बस, जैसे मधु निकालनेवाला मधुमक्खियोंद्वारा संचित रसको निकाल ले जाता है वैसे ही उनके संचित धनको भी उसकी टोह रखनेवाला कोई दूसरा पुरुष ही भोगता है॥ १५॥

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।
