Verse 6.6.61
आपातमात्रमधुरत्वमनर्थसत्त्वमाद्यन्तवत्त्वमखिलस्थितिभङ्गुरत्वम् ।
अज्ञानशाखिन इति प्रसृतानि राम नानाकृतीनि विपुलानि फलानि तानि ॥ ६१ ॥

ajñānaśākhina iti prasṛtāni rāma nānākṛtīni vipulāni phalāni tāni || 61 ||
Know Rama, the pleasures of the world, to be as the pernicious fruits of ignorance; which are pleasant to taste at first, but prove to be full of bitter gall at last. It is therefore better to destroy this baneful arbour, than to lose the life and soul by the mortal taste of its fruits.
