तरि अदंभित्व ऐसें I लोभियाचें मन जैसें I जीवु जावो परि नुमसे I ठेविला ठावो II 203 II
तयापरी किरीटी I पडिलाहि प्राणसंकटीं I परि सुकृत क प्रकटी I आंगें बोलें II 204 II
खडाणे आला पान्हा I पळवून जेवीं अर्जुना I कां लपवी पण्यांगना I वडिलपण II 205 II
आढ्य आतुडे आडवीं I मग आढ्यता जेविं हारवी I ना तरी कुळवधू लपवी अवेवांतें II 206 II
नाना कृषिवळु आपुलें I पांघुरवी पेरिलें I तैसें झांकी निपजलें I दानपुण्य II 207 II
वरिवरी देहो न पूजी I लोकांतें न रंजी I स्वधर्मु वाग्ध्वजीं I बांधों नेणें II 208 II
परोपकारु न बोले I न मिरवी अभ्यासिलें I न शके विंकू जोडलें I स्फीतीसाठीं II 209 II
शरीरभोगाकडे I पहातां कृपणु आवडे I एऱ्हवीं धर्मविषयीं थोडें- I बहु न म्हणे II 210 II
घरीं दिसे सांकड I देहींची ही आयती रोड I परि दानीं जया होड I सुरतरूसीं II 211 II
किंबहुना स्वधर्मीं थोरु I अवसरीं उदारु I आत्मचर्चे चतुरु I एऱ्हवीं वेडा II 212 II
केळींचें दळवाडें I हळू पोकळ आवडे I परि फळोनियां गाढें I रसाळ जैसें II 213 II
कां मेघांचें आंग झील I दिसे वारेनि जैसें जाईल I परि वर्षती नवल I घनवट तें II 214 II
तैसा जो पूर्णपणीं I पाहतां धातीआयणी I एऱ्हवीं तरी वाणी I तोचि ठावो II 215 II
हें असो या चिन्हांचा I नटनाचु ठायीं जयाच्या I जाण ज्ञान तयाच्या I हातां चढे II 216 II
पैं गा अदंभपण I म्हणितलें तें हें जाण I आतां आइक खूण I अहिंसेची II 217 II

"Illustrating Adambhitva, pridelessness, unpretentiousness Lord Krishna said as unyielding as an avaricious who never discloses where he has kept his wealth buried come what may, is the person who do not talk of their good deeds themselves, even to the point of sacrificing their life. Just like a mischievous cow pretends welling up of milk, or a prostitute does not disclose her true age, or wealthy surrounded by robbers pretends worthlessness, or a respectable woman from a good family keeps her body properly covered, or a farmer sows the seed deep in the soil, or the one who keeps his virtuous deeds, charity secret. The person who doesn't subject to physical indulgences and stay away from flattery. The person who performs his duty diligently, but do not boast it. His acts of goodness are silently performed humbly, without seeking public recognition or praise. Do not boast or call attention to their knowledge. Use their knowledge for greater good than merely for personal advancements. With respect to bodily pleasures, he is a miser, but ahead of everyone in Divine/religious duty, sacred work. Scarcity in household and he is too thin, yet in charity he competes with KalpaVruksha, the divine wish fulfilling tree. What more can I say, he is the Wise, righteous, adept in knowledge of Self, but act like a mad man displaying eccentric behaviour. Just like stock of banana is hollow, yet it's fruits are creamy, or the sparse clouds appear as if wind may disperse them, yet hail fall from the same clouds. Similarly he who manifests contentment, yet dull in the worldly sense, when you find these characteristics in a person, then he is truly the KNOWLEDGE Realized person. This was all about Adambhitva. Now let Me illuminate you about Ahinsa."
