4.13.5
āhārādadhikaṃ bhojyaṃ jrahmāṇḍavibhave'pi na |
tadarthaṃ munayo mithyā pravartante kathaṃ mune ||
If one acquires, as one’s wealth, the whole Universe, still one does not require anything more than what is required in feeding one’s belly; how is it that Brihaspatî could speak falsehood merely for the sake of his belly?
