That nectar, hard to win through toil and effort, surrendered to the serpents by Garuḍa, / was never drunk, nor even seen, nor kept safe; out of delusion it was merely lost. / Therefore, not the slightest speck of pure wisdom exists in all three worlds; / everyone rushes into the pursuit of wealth compelled by the karma of previous lives.
