ĀTMĀNUŚĀSANA – PRECEPT ON THE SOUL by Ācārya GUṆABHADRA (ca. 818–900 A.D.) [62]
Gātha 60
O worthy souls! All those you consider as your refuge are not so. Your kinsmen, which engender attachment and aversion, are the cause of bondage of karmas. Your wife, whom you have known for long, is the door to the abodes of adversity. Know your sons too to be your enemies. Reflecting in this manner, forsake them all and, as you desire happiness, engage in adoration of the pristine dharma.
