आलस्योपहता विद्या परहस्तं गतं धनम्।
अल्पबीजहतं क्षेत्रां हतं सैन्यमनायकम् ।।
Aalasyopahataa Viddyaa Parahastam Gatam Dhanam |
Alpabeejahatam Kshetram Hatam Senyamanaayakam ||
Callous lethargy destroys knowledge; others hold on your money soon destroys it for you; the field is destroyed by the lack of seed and the army is destroyed in the absence of a commander
A careless, lazy bloke cannot gain knowledge if he lacks in self-discipline which is a ‘must’ for becoming the learned. Money is with him who controls it. If others have control over it, deem it that it is lost for you. Lack of seed ruins the fertility of the field. It is a known fact that if you don’t sow a field for years together, it turns barren. And how can an army fight without a commander?
