चतुर्वर्गसंग्रह - याचना


दारिद्र्येण कुलं मदेन कुशलं द्वेषेण विद्याफलं
    शीलं दुर्जनसंगेमेन मलिनाचारेण शुक्लं यशः ।
आलस्येन धनं प्रयाति निधनं लौल्येन मानोन्नतिः
    याज्ञादैन्यपरिग्रहेण च गुणग्रामः समग्रो नृणाम् ॥


- चतुर्वर्गसंग्रह


Misery hurts the family. Intoxication destroys well-being. The fruits of education are spoiled by hatred. Character is spoiled by having friendship with rogues. By doing sinful acts one destroys his fame. Laziness makes you lose wealth. Greed destroys honor. But beggary destroys all qualities that a man has.

सुभाषितसुधानिधि - याचना


याचना हि पुरुषस्य महत्वं
    नाशयत्यखिलमेव तथा हि |
सद्य एव भगवानपि विष्णु-
    र्वामनो भवति याचितुमिच्छन् ||


- सुभाषितसुधानिधि


Beggary will destroy all the good qualities that a man has. Look at even Lord Vishnu. He had to become Vamana (midget) when he chose to beg alms from Raja Bali.
