Bhartṛhari K303

Tawney

            
            When honour fades, and wealth departs, and boons are craved in vain,
            
            And friends are dead, and servants fled, and joy exchanged for pain, 
            
            This course alone becomes the wise — to seek those mountain caves 
            
            Whence softly flow through woods below the sanctifying waves.

Mādhavānanda

            
              माने म्लायिनि खण्डिते च वसुनि व्यर्थे प्रयातेऽथिर्नि
            
                क्षीणे बन्धुजने गते परिजने नष्टे शनैर्यौवने ।
            
              युक्तं केवलमेतदेव सुधियां यज्जह्नुकन्यापय:-
            
                पूतग्रावगिरीन्द्रकन्दरतटीकुञ्जे निवास: क्वचित् ।।७८।।
            
            78. When honour has faded, wealth has become ruined, those who sue for favours have departed in disap­pointment, friends have dwindled away, retainers have left, and youth has gradually decayed, there remains only one thing proper for the wise—residence somewhere in a grove on the side of a valley of the Himalayas whose rocks are purified by the waters of the Gaṅgā.
            
            [जह्नुकन्या—The Gaṅgā is so called on account of the myth that ṛṣi Jahnu drank it up and then disgorged it through his ear or thigh, when in its course towards the Bay of Bengal after its descent from the heavens it overflowed the sacrificial platform of the ṛṣi. Examination of the traditional place where the ṛṣi is supposed to have lived in ancient times, suggests the likelihood of the course of the river being obstructed by an extensive eminence with pervious soil and of its delayed emergence on the other side.]

St. XXXIII.- € Ñƒà = sagañamäus g . ( Râmarshi ) de

stroyed or lost seems to be more likely . Twithout obtaining

anything . क्षोणे = नष्टवने ( Ramarshi ) कन्दरदरीकुञ्ज - - कन्दर and दरी are

given as synonymes in Amara and Medini . Perhaps therefore the

reading of N. ought to be preferred as avoiding the pleonasm . Râ

marshi renders by : which would mean a natural cave

( Amara . ) ; t by Jer which is the same thing ; and by

affar as in Amara ; and takes the whole to be a Samâhâra
