Distance and Relationships | Arthashastra 317



दुरऽस्थो​पि न दूरस्थो यो यस्य मनसि स्थितः ।

यो यस्य हृदये नास्ति समीपस्थो​ऽपि दूरत: ।।


Doorasthoapi Nadoorasthoyo Yasya Manasi Sthitah |

Yoyassya Hridaya Naasti sameepasthoapi Dooratah ||


He who is inside one’s heart is not far away despite being distant. He who is not in one’s heart is very far off despite being close.

He whom we love, is never far away despite being distant and he, whom we don’t love, is very far away even if he be nearby physically.
