Chanakya Niti • Chapter 12 • Shloka 4
हस्तौ दानविवर्जितौ श्रुतिपुटौ सारस्वतद्रोहिणौ
नेत्रे साधुविलोकनेन रहिते पादौ न तीर्थं गतौ ।।
अन्यायार्जितवित्त पूर्णमुदरं गर्वेण तुड्गं शिरो ।
रे रे जंबुक मुञ्चमुञ्च सहसा नीचं सुनिन्द्यं वपुः ।।
O jackal, leave aside the body of that man at once, whose hands have never given in charity, whose ears have not heard the voice of learning, whose eyes have not beheld a pure devotee of the Lord, whose feet have never traversed to holy places, whose belly is filled with things obtained by crooked practices, and whose head is held high in vanity. Do not eat it, O jackal, otherwise you will become polluted.
