Begging is the second form of poverty, not the lack of wealth. Śiva Śambhu wears only a loincloth, yet he is called the Supreme Lord.
Servitude destroys comforts; vice destroys wealth; begging destroys dignity; a bad king destroys subjects; and a degenerate son destroys a family like a harsh axe striking at the root.
