Sankhya Yoga

गुरूनहत्वा हि महानुभावान्
श्रेयो भोक्तुं भैक्ष्यमपीह लोके |
हत्वार्थकामांस्तु गुरूनिहैव
भुञ्जीय भोगान् रुधिरप्रदिग्धान् ||२-५||

gurūnahatvā hi mahānubhāvān śreyo bhoktuṃ bhaikṣyamapīha loke .
hatvārthakāmāṃstu gurūnihaiva bhuñjīya bhogān rudhirapradigdhān ||2-5||

Hindi Translation

।।2.5।। इन महानुभाव गुरुजनों को मारने से इस लोक में भिक्षा का अन्न भी ग्रहण करना अधिक कल्याण कारक है, क्योंकि गुरुजनों को मारकर मैं इस लोक में रक्तरंजित अर्थ और काम रूप भोगों को ही भोगूँगा।।

English Translation

"2.5 Better it is, indeed, in this world to accept alms than to slay the most noble teachers. But if I kill them, even in this world all my enjoyments of wealth and fulfilled desires will be stained with (their) blood."
