Chanakya Niti • Chapter 9 • Shloka 12
स्वहस्तग्रथिता माला स्वहस्ताद घृष्टचन्दनम् ।
स्वहस्तलिखितं शक्रस्यापि श्रियं हरेत् ।।
इक्षुदंडास्तिलाः शुद्राः कान्ता कांचनमोदिनी ।
चन्दनं दधि ताम्बूलं मर्दनं गुणवर्ध्दनम् ।।
By preparing a garland for a Deity with one's own hand; by grinding sandal paste for the Lord with one's own hand; and by writing sacred texts with one's own hand -- one becomes blessed with opulence equal to that of Indra.
