2.5

gurūn ahatvā hi mahānubhāvān
śreyo bhoktuṃ bhaikṣyam apīha loke
hatvārthakāmāṃstu gurunihaiva
bhuñjjīya bhogān rudhirapradigdhān

Surely it would be better even to eat the bread of beggary in this life than to slay these great-souled masters. But if I kill them, even in this world, all my enjoyment of wealth and desires will be stained with blood.

Swami Swarupananda 1909, Srimad-Bhagavad-Gita
