The Goddess of wealth is unsteady, and so is the life breath. The duration of life is uncertain, and the place of habitation is uncertain; but in all this inconsistent world religious merit alone is immovable.

He who has wealth has friends.

He who loses his money is forsaken by his friends, his wife, his servants and his relations; yet when he regains his riches those who have forsaken him come back to him. Hence wealth is certainly the best of relations.

A man or a ruler should always take up a task after thoroughly considering its consequences. Otherwise fate also cannot protect his wealth.

As water collected in a tank gets pure by filtration, so accumulated wealth is preserved by being employed in charity.

O wise man! Give your wealth only to the worthy and never to others. The water of the sea received by the clouds is always sweet.
