दुर्योधन उवाच
यन् मया पाण्डवानां तु दृष्टं तच् छृणु भारत ॥
आहृतं भूमिपालैर् हि वसु मुख्यं ततस् ततः ॥
न विन्दे दृढम् आत्मानं दृष्ट्वाहं तद् अरेर् धनम् ॥
फलतो भूमितो वापि प्रतिपद्यस्व भारत ॥
duryodhana uvāca
yan mayā pāṇḍavānāṃ tu dṛṣṭaṃ tac chṛṇu bhārata ||
āhṛtaṃ bhūmipālair hi vasu mukhyaṃ tatas tataḥ ||
na vinde dṛḍham ātmānaṃ dṛṣṭvāhaṃ tad arer dhanam ||
phalato bhūmito vāpi pratipadyasva bhārata ||
“Hear, O Bharata, what I have seen among the Pandavas: the chief wealth brought from every side by the kings of the earth. Having seen that wealth of the enemy, I find no firmness within myself; take it, O Bharata — whether as tribute from the harvest, or by seizing the land.”

The envious man does not merely suffer — he incites seizure: ‘take it.’ It is telling that envy, unsatisfied by mere beholding, strains toward action, toward appropriating what belongs to another. The verse teaches that an unhealed passion does not remain in the heart but seeks hands to act: a thought about another's wealth ripens into a design to take it. And the professed helplessness — ‘I find no firmness’ — is not humility but a summons to lawlessness. One who, having seen another's good fortune, loses his peace and calls on his kinsmen to seize it, has already transgressed in his heart; and from such an inner fall it is but one step to an outer one.
