क्षुत्तृट्त्रिकालगुणमारुतजैह्वशैश्नानस्मानपारजलधीनतितीर्य केचित् । क्रोधस्य यान्ति विफलस्य वशं पदे गोर्मज्जन्ति दुश्चरतपश्च वृथोत्सृजन्ति ।। ११-४-११ ।।

sanskrit

Some men practice severe penances to cross beyond our influence, which is like an immeasurable ocean with endless waves of hunger, thirst, heat, cold and the other conditions brought about by the passing of time, such as the sensuous wind and the urges of the tongue and sex organs. Nevertheless, although crossing this ocean of sense gratification through severe penances, such persons foolishly drown in a cow’s hoofprint when conquered by useless anger. Thus they exhaust the benefit of their difficult austerities in vain. ।। 11-4-11 ।।

sanskrit

When the followers of the demigods gazed upon the fascinating mystic beauty of the women created by Nara-Nārāyaṇa Ṛṣi and smelled the fragrance of their bodies, the minds of these followers became bewildered. Indeed, upon seeing the beauty and magnificence of such women, the representatives of the demigods were completely diminished in their own opulence. ।। 11-4-13 ।।
