पृथिव्यां त्रीणि रत्नानि अन्नमाप: सुभोषितम्।
मूढै: पाषाणखण्डेषु रत्नसंज्ञां विधीयते।।
Prithivvaam Treeni Rattnaani annamaapah Subhoshitam|
Moodhai Paashaankhandeshu Ratnasangyaa Vidheeyate ||
The real gems on this earth are three: food, water and kind words. Fools in vain call the pieces of stone as gems.
Food, drink and kind words are the most precious things on the earth which gratify the basic physical and emotional needs.
