KRISHNA AVATARA
 
Clasping each other's hands, Krishna
 
and Kuchela talked their own beautiful
old stories (of the days) when they were
in the teacher's house together.
 
श्रीभगवान्-
'प्रायो गृहेषु ते चित्तमकामविहतं तथा ।
नैवातिप्रीयसे विद्वन् धनेषु विदितं हि मे ॥
The Lord-

SL
 
"In household life, your mind is
not lost in material desires. O man of
wisdom! I know you are not over-fond
of riches.
 
'किमुपायनमानीतं ब्रह्मन् मे भवता गृहात् ।
अण्वप्युपाहृतं भक्तैः प्रेम्णा भूर्येव मे भवेत् ।
भूर्यप्यभक्तोपहृतं न मे तोषाय कल्पते ॥
 
"O Brahmin ! What offering have you
brought for me from your house? Even
the little that is offered by the devoted
will become ample because of the love;
and even the ample that is offered by the
unloving does not suffice to satisfy Me.
 
• पत्रं पुष्पं फलं तोयं यो मे भक्तचा प्रयच्छति ।
तदहं भक्त युपहृतमश्नामि प्रयतात्मनः ॥'
