त्यक्तैर्द्रव्यैर्यो भवति नोपयुङ्क्ते च कामतः । न च कर्मसु तद्धीनः शिष्यबुद्धिर्नरो यथा । सर्वैरेव गुणैर्युक्तो द्रव्यवानपि यो भवेत् ॥
tyaktairdravyairyo bhavati nopayuṅkte ca kāmataḥ | na ca karmasu taddhīnaḥ śiṣyabuddhirnaro yathā | sarvaireva guṇairyukto dravyavānapi yo bhavet ||
One who [is content] with things given up and does not enjoy them out of desire; who does not, for that reason, fall short in his work, a man with the mind of a student; and one who, even if he has wealth, is endowed with all the virtues.
जो त्यागी हुई वस्तुओं से (संतुष्ट) रहता है और इच्छावश उनका उपभोग नहीं करता; जो उसके कारण अपने कर्मों में कमी नहीं करता, शिष्य जैसी (विनम्र) बुद्धि वाला; और जो धनवान होकर भी सभी गुणों से युक्त रहता है।
Meaning today and contextआज के लिए अर्थ और संदर्भ
Detachment doesn't mean becoming lazy or withdrawing from work. You can have wealth and still be humble, keep working well, and not be ruled by wanting.
वैराग्य का अर्थ आलसी होना या काम से हट जाना नहीं है। धन होते हुए भी विनम्र रहा जा सकता है, अच्छा काम करते रहा जा सकता है, और इच्छा के वश में न रहा जाए।
Sanatsujata describes further forms of renunciation: living content with what one has given up, not using things out of desire, not becoming slack in work, staying humble like a student, and keeping virtue even when wealthy.
