Subhashhitani -- Good Speech 1


सुभाषितानि -- Good Speech


सत्यं भ्रूयात् प्रियम् भ्रूयात्
न भ्रूयात् सत्यमप्रियं
प्रियं च नानृतं भ्रूयात्
एषधर्मः स्नातनः

Satyam bhruuyat.h priyamh bhruuyat.h
na bhruuyat.h satyampriyam
priyam ch nanR^itam bhruuyat
eShhdharmaH sanatanaH

Meaning: Truth should be told but it should be palatable। A truth which is unpalatable should not be told, A lie even though palatable should not be told at all. This is the essence of Sanatana dharma. ( Hindu religion) 



सुलभाः पुरूषाः लोके
सततं प्रियवादिनः
अप्रियस्य च पथ्यस्य
वक्ता श्रोता च दुर्लभाः

SulabhaaH puruuShhaH loke
satatam priyavaadinaH
apriyasya ch pathyasya
vakataa shrotaa ch durlabhaaH

Meaning : In this world there are many people who talk pleasingly always.
but people who admonish sternly for well being are rare and listeners are rare too.


ॐ नमः शिवाय!
