ŚB 11.8.16 · गीता प्रेस पाठ

सुदु:खोपार्जितैर्वित्तैराशासानां गृहाशिष:। मधुहेवाग्रतो भुङ्क्ते यतिर्वै गृहमेधिनाम्॥ १६

हिन्दी भावार्थ

तुम देखते हो न कि मधुहारी मधुमक्खियोंका जोड़ा हुआ मधु उनके खानेसे पहले ही साफ कर जाता है; वैसे ही गृहस्थोंके बहुत कठिनाईसे संचित किये पदार्थोंको, जिनसे वे सुखभोगकी अभिलाषा रखते हैं, उनसे भी पहले संन्यासी और ब्रह्मचारी भोगते हैं। क्योंकि गृहस्थ तो पहले अतिथि-अभ्यागतोंको भोजन कराकर ही स्वयं भोजन करेगा॥ १६॥

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।
