स्थातव्यं नेह भोगेषु विवेकरहितात्मना ।
उपलोदरसंजातपरिपीनान्धभेकवत् ॥ ६ ॥

sthātavyaṃ neha bhogeṣu vivekarahitātmanā |
upalodarasaṃjātaparipīnāndhabhekavat || 6 ||

We must not be so absorbed in the pleasures of the world as to be devoid of all sensibility; like some blind frogs which are generated and grow fat amidst the stones.
