Guest guest Posted January 15, 2002 Report Share Posted January 15, 2002 The sages who have come to know this Self overcome the desire for sons, the desire for riches, the desire for worlds, and set forth on a mendicant's life. For desire for sons is desire for wealth, and desire for wealth is desire for worlds; both are nothing but desires. Therefore, let a sage go beyond learning and lead the life of a child. Sukla Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 3.5b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
