Question
न संशयमनारुह्य नरो भद्राणि पश्यति।

Answer

The human being can not see welfare without taking risk.
Explanation: This line has been taken from the story 'कङ्कणस्य तु लोभेन' of Hitopdesh composed by Vishnu Sharma. This line indicates that one who ventures can achieve wealth and prosperity. Thus a person can not see get welfare without taking risk. But after taking risk, if he remains alive, he can see / experience welfare.
    Here a story is presented about an old tiger and a greedy traveller. The traveller gets tempted for golden bracelet offered to him by the tiger. Due to greed, the traveller does not think about the consequences and was killed and eaten away by the tiger. Thus a person who takes risk for earning money without thinking about the consequences has to regret later. Therefore it is said, "Greed is so destructive, it destroys everything."
    Therefore a person should take risk after thinking intelligently. Risk can bring welfare to a person. After taking risk, if a person remains alive, he can see welfare.
    Thus a person should keep himself away from unnecessary greed.
