When one’s friends and relatives are properly situated, one’s religion, economic development and sense gratification, as described in the Vedic literatures, are beneficial. Otherwise, if one’s friends and relatives are in distress, these three cannot offer any happiness.
Srimad Bhagavata Purana
श्रीमद्भागवतमहापुराणम्
मूल श्लोकः
पुंसस्त्रिवर्गो विहितः सुहृदो ह्यनुभावितः । न तेषु क्लिश्यमानेषु त्रिवर्गोऽर्थाय कल्पते
puṃsastrivargo vihitaḥ suhṛdo hyanubhāvitaḥ | na teṣu kliśyamāneṣu trivargo'rthāya kalpate
