paśya paśya ca bhūyastvaṃ kāmānicchetkathaṃ naraḥ |
svargadvāraṃ hi saṃruddhaṃ mānuṣeṣu viśeṣataḥ || 45 ||
"Kundadhara said, 'After having worshipped me with devotion thou didst get sorrow for thy share, what then would have been the good done to thee by me, and what the value of my favour? Look, look for what end men desire the gratification of carnal enjoyments. The door of heaven is closed unto men.'
