Yayati said : O king, no king of equal energy should ever desire to accept in gift the religious merits of another king acquired by Yoga. No king, if wise, should act in a censurable way, though afflicted with calamity.
ययातिरुवाच न तुल्यतेजाः सुकृतं कामयेत् योगक्षेमं पार्थिव पार्थिवः सन्। श्चरेनृशंसं न हि जातु राजा॥
