यदि वा मन्येत "न मे शक्तः परः कर्माण्य् उपहन्तुं न अहं तस्य कर्म उपघाती वा, व्यसनम् अस्य, श्व वराहयोर् इव कलहे वा, स्व कर्म अनुष्ठान परो वा वर्धिष्ये" इत्य् आसनेन वृद्धिम् आतिष्ठेत् ॥

Or if a king thinks:-- "That neither is my enemy strong enough to destroy my works, nor am I his; or if he comes to fight with me, like a dog with a boar, I can increase his afflictions without incurring any loss in my own works," then he may observe neutrality and augment his own resources.
