द दानं – भोगो= नाश:
ति तिस्रो गतयो भवन्ति वित्तस्य
यो यो न ददाति न भुङ्क्ते
त तस्य गति: तृतीया भवति ||
The money or wealth one possesses has three
outlets. one is enjoyment, the other is charity and still the other is annihilation.
A person who neither enjoys his wealth nor even donates the same to others gets
his wealth annihilated or destroyed. Therefore, wealth should either be enjoyed
or donated to others. It should never be kept unused or concealed.
