2.29

rāgasyāgāram ekaṃ naraka-śata-mahā-duḥkha-samprāpti-heturmohasyotpatti-
bījaṃ jaladhara-paṭalaṃ jñāna-tārādhipasya |
kandarpasyaika-mitraṃ prakaṭita-vividha-spaṣṭa-doṣa-prabandhaṃ
loke 'smin na hy artha-vraja-kula-bhavana-yauvanād anyad asti ||

The sole abode of passion, the cause of attaining the great suffering of hundreds of hells, / the seed from which delusion springs, the mass of clouds that obscures the moon of knowledge, / the sole friend of Kandarpa, a continuous display of various evident faults— / in this world, there is nothing other than wealth, family lineage, high dwelling, and youth.
