Shiva Purana

Progress:33.6%

विपरीतार्थभोगेन राग एव प्रजायते । धर्मश्च द्विविधः प्रोक्तो द्र व्यदेहद्वयेन च ५२ ।

If the enjoyment is through the wealth acquired by other means, the result is the increase of passion alone. Dharma is twofold: one through the sacrificial offering and the other through the body by performing ceremonial ablutions in a sacred river etc. One can earn wealth through virtue and divine form through penance.
