🪷 ŚB 5.6.4
Sanskrit, transliteration, word meanings, and translation for steady Bhāgavata reading.
Sanskrit
नित्यं ददाति कामस्यच्छिद्रं तमनु येऽरय: ।
योगिन: कृतमैत्रस्य पत्युर्जायेव पुंश्चली ॥ ४ ॥
Transliteration
nityaṁ dadāti kāmasya
cchidraṁ tam anu ye ’rayaḥ
yoginaḥ kṛta-maitrasya
patyur jāyeva puṁścalī
Synonyms
nityam — always; dadāti — gives; kāmasya — of lust; chidram — facility; tam — that (lust); anu — following; ye — those; arayaḥ — enemies; yoginaḥ — of the yogīs or persons trying to advance in spiritual life; kṛta-maitrasya — having put faith in the mind; patyuḥ — of the husband; jāyā iva — like the wife; puṁścalī — who is unchaste or easily carried away by other men.
Translation
An unchaste woman is very easily carried away by paramours, and it sometimes happens that her husband is violently killed by her paramours. If the yogī gives his mind a chance and does not restrain it, his mind will give facility to enemies like lust, anger and greed, and they will doubtlessly kill the yogī.
