नित्यस्यार्थस्य सम्बन्धो ह्यनित्यो दृश्यते नृषु । यावद्यस्य हि सम्बन्धो ममत्वं तावदेव हि ।। ६-१६-७ ।।

sanskrit

A few living entities are born in the human species, and others are born as animals. Although both are living entities, their relationships are impermanent. An animal may remain in the custody of a human being for some time, and then the same animal may be transferred to the possession of other human beings. As soon as the animal goes away, the former proprietor no longer has a sense of ownership. As long as the animal is in his possession he certainly has an affinity for it, but as soon as the animal is sold, the affinity is lost. ।। 6-16-7 ।।

english translation

कुछ ही जीवात्माएँ मनुष्य योनि में जन्म लेती हैं और शेष दूसरी पशु-योनि में जन्मती हैं। यद्यपि ये दोनों ही जीवात्माएँ हैं, किन्तु इनके सम्बन्ध अस्थायी हैं। कोई पशु किसी मनुष्य के अधिकार में कुछ काल तक रहकर किसी दूसरे के अधिकार में जा सकता है। जब पशु चला जाता है पहले वाले मालिक का स्वामित्व भी चला जाता है। जब तक वह पशु उसके अधिकार में रहता है, उसके प्रति उसका लगाव रहता है, किन्तु उसको बेचते ही सारा लगाव छूट जाता है। ।। ६-१६-७ ।।
