Verse 5.24.71

देशक्रमेण धनमल्पविगर्हणेन तेनाङ्ग साधुजनमर्जय मानपूर्वम् ।
तत्संगमोत्थविषयाद्यवहेलनेन सम्यग्विचारविभवेन तवात्मलाभः ॥ ७१ ॥

deśakrameṇa dhanamalpavigarhaṇena tenāṅga sādhujanamarjaya mānapūrvam |
tatsaṃgamotthaviṣayādyavahelanena samyagvicāravibhavena tavātmalābhaḥ || 71 ||

Thus the steps of attaining consummation, are first of all the acquisition of wealth, according to the custom of the caste and country; and then its employment in the service of wise and learned men. Next follows your abandonment of the world, which is succeeded by your attainment of Spiritual knowledge, by the cultivation of your reasoning powers.{GL_NOTE:73152:}
