બેઠક Bethak

અનીતિસેં જાત હય, ધર્મ, રાજ ઓર વંશ; તુલસી એ દૃષ્ટાંત હય, કારવ, રાવણ, કંસ.

anītisēṁ jāta haya, dharma, rāja ōra vaṁśa; tulasī ē dr̥ṣṭāṁta haya, kārava, rāvaṇa, kaṁsa.

Literally
Through injustice go religion, kingdom, and lineage; Tulsidas says this is the proof: the Kauravas, Ravana, and Kansa.
What it means
Immorality and injustice inevitably lead to the total destruction of one's faith, power, and family line, as history has shown.

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
