Ramayana
को ऽर्थो मनीषितस्तुभ्यं स्वर्गलाभः परो ऽथवा । वराश्रयो यदर्थं त्वं तपस्यसि सुदुष्करम् । यमाश्रित्य तपस्तप्तं श्रोतुमिच्छामि तापस ॥ 7-75-17 ॥
What is the object you desire — the attainment of heaven, or some other supreme boon as your refuge — for the sake of which you practice this most difficult austerity? Relying upon what aim has this penance been undertaken? That I wish to hear, O ascetic."
