Chanakya Niti • Chapter 17 • Shloka 15
दानार्थिनो मधुकरा यदि कर्णतालै
दूरीकृता करिवरेण मदान्धबुद्धया ।
तस्यैव गण्डयुगमण्डनहानिरेव
भृङ्गाः पुनर्विकचपद्मवने वसन्ति ।।
If the bees which seek the liquid oozing from the head of a lust-intoxicated elephant are driven away by the flapping of his ears, then the elephant has lost only the ornament of his head. The bees are quite happy in the lotus filled lake.
