Dhritarashtra said:– "O Vidura, Sanjaya has departed. He left after rebuking me. Tomorrow he will deliver Yuddhisthira's message to the Kaurava court. I have not yet been able to ascertain what exactly that message is. Therefore, my body is burning, and that has produced sleeplessness.

Vidura said:– "Sleeplessness affects a thief, a lustful person, one that has lost all one's wealth, one that has failed to achieve success, and one that is weak and has been attacked by a strong person. I hope, O king, that none of these grave calamities has overtaken you! I hope, you do not grieve, coveting the wealth of others."

These two men, O King, remain in the region above heaven, viz., a lord with patience and a poor man of bountifulnes.
Note: Patience in a lord and bountifulness in a poor man are rare combinations. Hence their superiority resting on a level higher than heaven.

These two are to be known as misapplications of wealth rightly acquired, viz., to give to the undeserving and not to give to the worthy.

These two are to be immersed (drowned) in water with massive stone tied to their neck, viz., a rich man who does not give and a poor man who is not pious.

O Tiger among men! These two pierce the solar disc (and attain heaven), viz., an ascetic mastered (accomplished) in yoga and a warrior slain facing death in battle.
Note: A Sanyasi who has mastered yogic practice and a warrior dauntlessly facing death in the battlefield, both attain salvation, from Gita - 𑌹𑌤𑍍𑌵𑌾 𑌵𑌾 𑌪𑍍𑌰𑌾𑌪𑍍𑌯𑌸𑍇 𑌸𑍍𑌵𑌰𑍍𑌗𑌂 𑌜𑌿𑌤𑍍𑌵𑌾 𑌵𑌾 𑌮𑍋𑌕𑍍𑌷𑍍𑌯𑌸𑍇 𑌮𑌹𑍀𑌮𑍍.

O illustrious scion of Bharata dynasty! Those versed in the Vedas have declared that men's policies are said to be three, viz., inferior, middling and superior.

𑌤𑍍𑌰𑌿𑌵𑌿𑌧𑌾𑌃 𑌪𑍁𑌰𑍁𑌷𑌾 𑌰𑌾𑌜𑌨𑍍𑌨𑍁𑌤𑍍𑌤𑌮𑌾𑌧𑌮𑌮𑌧𑍍𑌯𑌮𑌾𑌃 ।

Men, O King, are of three sorts, good, bad and middling. These are indeed to be engaged respectively in the three sorts of work as befitting them.
Note: The good are to be engaged in good works and likewise others to works suited to them.

These three, O king, are not entitled to their own wealth, viz., the wife, the employee, and the son, and whatever may be earned by them would belong to the one who supports them.
Note: With the gradual recognition and growth of individual freedom, this conception is slowly disappearing from society.

To steal another's property, to commit outrage on another's wife, to give up a friend, these three tend to one's destruction (fall).

These three are the gates of hell and they destroy one's own self, viz., lust anger and covetousness. Therefore one should give up these three.

Oh King of Bharata dynasty! giving boon (to dependents), winning kingdom and birth of a son, these three together, are equal in merit to the one, vis., liberating a foe from trouble (calamity).

A past faithful attendant, a present follower and one who says 'I am yours', these three who seek protection, should never be forsaken even if exposed to danger.

The wise declare that a king, though highly mighty, should avoid these four, viz, he should not take counsel of men of little wisdom, nor of the those who are slow to act, nor of the lazy, nor of the flattering bards.

Being a prosperous householder, you should let these four dwell with you, viz., the aged blood relatives, prominant persons fallen into adversity, poor friends, and unmarried/barren sisters.

The resolve of the Devas, the power or greatness of the intelligent (wise), the humility of the learned adn destruction of the sinful, all take effect at once.

Due performance of these four which conduce to one's safety, leads to calamity if done improperly, viz., Agnihotra sacrifice, silence, study, and sacrifices in general, performed in a spirit of self-conceit.

These six are to be abandoned by a man like a broken vessel in the ocean, viz., a teacher who does not explain the truths, an officiating priest in a sacrifice who cannot recite the Vedas, a king who is unable to protect (subjects), a wife that does not speak endearing words, a cowherd that desires to remain in the village (instead of going to the pasture fields), and a barber that wishes to go to the forest (instead of living in the village).

On the other hand, these six qualities are never to be shunned by a man, viz., truth, charity, diligence, absence of envy, patience and fortitude.

O King, these six contribute to the happiness of man, viz., acquisition of wealth, continued health, a loving and sweet-tongued wife, an obedient son and knowledge that would help to earn money (or the high ends of life).

He who gains mastery over the six that are inherent in the human mind, that one who has conquered the senses is not tainted with sins; how then visited with calamities?
Note: the six mentioned above are lust, anger, grief, ignorance, egotism and vanity. The root cause of all sins is when one if overpowered by the above six. The man who has conquered his senses, keeps these six under his control.

These six thrive always upon the six and a seventh is not had, viz., thieves on teh careless; physicians, on the sick; women, on the lustful, priests, on the performer of sacrifices, the king on those quarrelling, and the learned, on the ignorant illiterate.

These six are destroyed if neglected for a moment, viz., cows, service agriculture, wife, learning and association with a sudra (a lower order in the society).

These six always forget those who have obliged them before, viz., pupils forget their teacher after education, sons their mother, after marriage; lovers forget women after gratification of their lust, successful men, those that have contributed to their success, those that have crossed the vast sea, the boat that took them across, and healthy patients, the physician after their cure.

O King, these six contribute to the happiness of men, viz., sound health, undebtedness, to have no sojourn abroad from home, association with the good virtuous, occupation in conformity with one's own inclination (view), and living without fear.

These six are always miserable (distressed), viz., the jealous, the tender-hearted, the discontented, the irritable, the ever-suspicious and those that live upon other's fortunes.

These seven evils which lead to calamity should always be avoided by a king. For the most part, even steadfast Gods (or kings firmly established) come by their ruin on account of these.

Women, gamling, hunting, drinking, and fifth, harshness of speech, great severity of punishment and misuse of wealth (are the above seven).
Note: These are very serious vices which have wrought havoc and ruin to Gods, emperors and others, and are seen to bring great misfortune to many families even at present.

Eight are the previous symptoms of a man's impending destruction, viz., hatred against Brahmins, opposition to the Brahmins, appropriation of Brahmin's property, desire to kill or do harm to Brahmins, joy or delight in their censure, disapproval (sorrow) in their praise, forgetting them in ceremonies, and anger in their asking for favours. A wise man should know these evils and knowing, them, eschew.

O King of Bharata dynasty! These eight are seen to exist as the cream of delight and they are verily one's own happiness, viz., union with friends, acquisition of immense wealth, embrace of son, confluence in sexual union (equal passion of love), sweet conversation at the proper time elevation among one's own class, acquisition of what is wished for and respect in the assemblage of people (society).

O Dhritarashtra! Ten do not know what virtue is. Know them. These ten are, the intoxicated, the inattentive, the raving, the wearied, the angry, the hungry, the hasty, the covetous, the terrified, and the lustful. Therefore a wise man should not take to these modes or conditions, (or should not be attached to these men).
