Hitopdesh • Chapter 5 • Shloka 89
ततस्तद्वचनं निशम्य प्रबुद्ध इव कौण्डिन्य उत्थायाब्रवीत् - तदलमिदानीं गृहनरकवासेन । वनमेव गच्छामि । कपिलः पुनराह -- वनेऽपि दोषाः प्रभवन्ति रागिणां गृहेऽपि पञ्चेन्द्रियनिग्रहस्तपः । अकुत्सिते कर्मणि यः प्रवर्तते निवृत्तरागस्य गृहं तपोवनम् ॥
Now, hearing his words, Kaundinya rose up, appearing to be enlightened on the subject, and said - Away with residence in the hell of a house. To the forest itself shall I retire. Kapila observed again - Even in a forest impediment (or, temptations) overtake those who are affected by passion; even in a house restraining the five organs of sense constitutes penance. The home is a penance-grove to him, with passions subdued, who proceeds in an act which is irreproachable.
