CHAPTER 3 · VERSE 12
Bhagavad Gita 3.12
इष्टान्भोगान्हि वो देवा दास्यन्ते यज्ञभाविताः। तैर्दत्तानप्रदायैभ्यो यो भुङ्क्ते स्तेन एव सः॥
Fostered by sacrifice, the divine forces will grant you the enjoyments you desire. But one who enjoys gifts granted by them without offering anything in return is indeed a thief.
Consuming life's resources without contributing back to society and nature is spiritually considered theft.
