ऐश्वर्यमत्तः पापिष्ठो मधुपानमदादपि |
ऐश्वर्यमदमातानां गतिरूर्ध्वा न विद्यते || - महासुभषितसंग्रह(८२०४)
भावार्थ - सामान्य मद्यपान के मद की तुलना मैं जो नीच व्यक्ति
अपने ऐश्वर्य के मद मे चूर रहते हैं वे अपने जीवन में कभी भी उन्नति
की ओर् अग्रसर नहीं हो सकते हैं |
Aishvaryamattah paapishtho madhupaanamadaadapi
Ashvaryamadamattanaam gatiroordhvaa na vidyate,
Aishvarya = power, prosperity. Mattah = mad, drunken.
Paapishtha = wicked, lowly. Madhupaanamadaadapi =
madhupaan+madaat +api. Madhupaana = drinking a
light intoxicating drink. Madaat = intoxication. Api =
even. Aishvaryamadamattanaam -= persons intoxicated
(proud) of their power and prosperity. Gatiroordhvaa =
gatih + oordhvaa. Gati = movement, condition. Oordhvaa-
upwards, elevated. Na = not. Vidyate =exists.
i.e. In comparison to the intoxication caused by the use
of various intoxicating drinks, persons who are intoxicated
by their power and prosperity, they never make any upward
progress in their life.
