[Kalpana Muzumdar]

कामादित्रिकमेव मूलमखिलक्लेशस्य मायोद्भवं

मर्त्यानामिति देवमौलिविलसद्भ्राजिष्णुचूडामणिः ।

श्रीकृष्णो भगवानवोचदखिलप्राणिप्रियो मत्प्रभुर्

यस्मात् तत् त्रिकमुद्यतेन मनसा हेयं पुमर्थार्थिना ॥

kāmāditrikameva mūlamakhilakleśasya māyodbhavaṃ
martyānāmiti devamaulivilasadbhrājiṣṇucūḍāmaṇiḥ |
śrīkṛṣṇo bhagavānavocadakhilaprāṇipriyo matprabhur
yasmāt tat trikamudyatena manasā heyaṃ pumarthārthinā ||

The root cause of all misery born of illusion is the triad of lust (anger and greed) to all mortals ; thus said, my Lord Krsna who loves all and who is the crest-jewel that shines bright at the head of all Gods. Hence a person desiring to attain the fourfold aim of life should shun these three with an ever vigilant mind.
