A man, O king, acquires riches who makes charitable gifts. One gets obedience to one's command by the vow of silence all the enjoyments of life by practice of austerities, long life by Brahmacharya, and beauty, prosperity and immunity from discase by abstaining from injury to others.
धनं लभेत दानेन मौनेनाज्ञां विशाम्पते। उपभोगांश्च तपसा ब्रह्मचर्येण जीवितम्॥
