ધરમને નામે ખોટી મતલબથી જે કામ થાય તે પુણ્ય કરવા કરતાં ગુનાહ કહેવાય.

dharamanē nāmē khōṭī matalabathī jē kāma thāya tē puṇya karavā karatāṁ gunāha kahēvāya.

Literally: Work done in the name of righteousness for a false motive is called a sin rather than a virtuous act.
What it means: Hypocritical acts done under the guise of religion are sinful.
