Today's Subhashita.

उपकारः  परोधर्मः  परोSर्थः  कर्मनैपुणं  |
पात्रेदानं  परः कामः परो मोक्षो वितृष्णता ||

अर्थ  -       परोपकार को परम् धर्म मानते हुए तत्पश्चात् निपुणता के साथ कर्म करते हुए धनार्जन और सुपात्र व्यक्तियों को  दान देने के बाद सांसारिक सुख  भोगते हुए भी जो व्यक्ति तृष्णा  का  भी त्याग करता है वही पुनर्जन्म के दुष्चक्र से मुक्त हो कर  मोक्ष को प्राप्त करता है |

Upakaarh parodharmh parorthh karmanaipunm.
paatredaanam parh  kaamh paro mooksho vitrushnataa.

Upakaarh = helping others .    Parodharmh =  primary propriety of conduct or religious duty.   Parorthh = Para +arthh.    Paro = afterwards.    Artha = wealth, money.     Karmanaipunam =
skillful in doing any work.   Paatre = a deserving person.    Daanm = giving in charity, donation.
kaamh = enjoyment of pleasure and conjugal bliss.   Moksho =  release from the cycle of rebirth.    Vitrushnataa = freedom from desire, satiety.

i.e.       A person,  who considers helping the needy persons as his foremost religious duty, and thereafter acquires wealth by skillfully doing his job, distributes his wealth by giving in charity to deserving persons and then enjoys marital and conjugal bliss free from excessive desires ultimately
achieves 'Moksha' (release from the cycle of re-birth).
