KAṬHA UPANISHAD · 1.1.27
न वित्तेन तर्पणीयो मनुष्यो
लप्स्यामहे वित्तमद्राक्ष्म चेत्त्वा ।
जीविष्यामो यावदीशिष्यसि त्वं
वरस्तु मे वरणीयः स एव ॥ २७॥
na vittena tarpaṇīyo manuṣyo
lapsyāmahe vittamadrākṣma cettvā ।
jīviṣyāmo yāvadīśiṣyasi tvaṃ
varastu me varaṇīyaḥ sa eva ॥ 27॥
“Man is not to be satisfied by riches, and riches we shall have if we have beheld thee and shall live as long as thou shalt be lord of us. This boon and no other is for my choosing.
Sri Aurobindo · CWSA 18, p. 107
