10.11

"Greedy people accumulate much, / yet in gaining it, never feel sated. / With minds inverted by avidyā, / they constantly think of infringing upon and harming others. / In the present life they have many enemies and resentments; / upon discarding the body, they fall into the evil destinies. / Therefore, the wise / should be mindful of contentment. / Begrudging wealth, they do not give, / hiding it away for fear others will know. / Discarding the body, they depart empty-handed, / to endure suffering among the hungry ghosts. / Hunger, thirst, cold, heat, and the like, / sorrow and grief constantly boil them. / The wise do not accumulate, / in order to shatter stinginess and greed."
