दिष्ट्या व्यर्थं कलत्रं मे नष्टमेतदशेषतः ॥ ३९ ॥

kiṃ mano me mamāśā kā ko me'haṃkārako bhavet |
diṣṭyā vyarthaṃ kalatraṃ me naṣṭametadaśeṣataḥ || 39 ||

What is this mind with its egoism and eager expectations to me, than a family of intractable inmates, of whom I have fortunately got rid by their wholesale deaths.
