Lomasha said: Telling them that his income and expenditure were the same that king said, “knowing this take from my wealth whatever you please to take. Having seen that his income and expenditure were the same, the Rishi who saw both sides with equal eyes thought that if he took anything, he would injure other creatures.
लोमश उवाच तत आयव्ययौ पूर्णौ तेषां राजा न्यवेदयत्। एतज्ज्ञात्वा ह्यपादध्वं यदत्र व्यतिरिच्यते॥ तत् आयव्ययौ दृष्ट्वा समौ सममतिर्द्विजः। सर्वथा प्राणिनां पीडामुपादानादमन्यत॥
