अनन्तशास्त्रां बहुलाश्च विद्या अल्पं द कालो बहुविघ्नता च।
आसानभूतं तदुपासनीयं हंसो यथा क्षीरमिवाम्बुपयात् ।।
Anantashaastram Bahulaashcha Vidya Alpam Dakaalo Bahuvighnataa Cha | Aasaanabhootam Tadupaasneeyam Hanso Yathaa Ksheermivaambupayaat ||
There are infinite scriptures, unlimited branches of knowledge but human life is very short with many hurdles in that short duration. Hence one should, like the swan who makes clear distinction between milk and water even if they be mixed and drinks pure milk, drive the useful essence of all learning and discard the rubbish
The sea of knowledge is very vast and life is short–so one should suck out the essence of all learning and cast aside the useless information by clearly sifting them through one’s discretion.
