HARI AUM

 

Few more of the 'yaksha'-Yudhistar' samvad.

 

Hope it is some food for thought.

11)The Yaksha asked,--'What is the best of all

laudable things? What is the most valuable of all his

possessions? What is the best of all gains? And what

is the best of all kinds of happiness?'

 

Yudhishthira answered,-- " The best of all laudable

things is skill; the best of all possessions is

knowledge: the best of all gains is health: and

contentment is the best of all kinds of happiness.'

 

12)The Yaksha asked,--'What is the highest duty in the

world? What is that virtue which always beareth fruit?

What is that which if controlled, leadeth not to

regret? And who are they with whom an alliance cannot

break?'

 

Yudhishthira answered,--'The highest of duties is to

refrain from injury: the rites ordained in the Three (

Vedas ) always bear fruit: the mind, if controlled,

leadeth to no regret: and an alliance with the good

never breaketh.'

 

13)The Yaksha asked,--'What is that which, if

renounced, maketh one agreeable? What is that which,

if renounced, leadeth to no regret? What is that

which, if renounced, maketh one wealthy? And what is

that which if renounced, maketh one happy?'

 

Yudhishthira answered,--'Pride, if renounced, maketh

one agreeable; wrath, if renounced leadeth to no

regret: desire, if renounced, maketh one wealthy: and

avarice, if renounced, maketh one happy.'

 

14)The Yaksha asked,--'With what is the world

enveloped? What is that owing to which a thing cannot

discover itself? For what are friends forsaken? And

for what doth one fail to go to heaven?'

 

Yudhishthira answered,--'The world is enveloped with

darkness. Darkness doth not permit a thing to show

itself. It is from avarice that friends are forsaken.

And it is connection with the world for which one

faileth to go to heaven.'
