Sanskrit Slokas of Wisdom.

Krishna the receipient of all salutations

---------

 

AkAshAt.h patitaM toyaM yathA gachchhati sAgaraM |

sarva deva namaskAraH keshavaM prati gachchhati ||

 

As all the water fallen from the skies goes to the

sea, similarly salutations to any demigod finally

reach Keshava ( Krishna ).

 

Good Man's Heart

----------------

 

sajjanasya hR^idaya.n navanIta.n yadvadanti

kavayastadalIkaM |

anyadehavilasatparitApAt.h sajjano dravati, no

navanItaM ||

 

Poets say that the heart of a good man is like butter,

but that is not correct. The heat (frustration/sorrow/

etc.) residing in another body does not melt butter,

but it does melt the good man.

 

Desire

------

 

niHsvo vashhTi shataM shatI dashashataM lakshaM

sahsrAdhipaH

laksheshaH kshitipAlatAM kshitipatishchakreshatAM

vAJNchhati |

chakreshaH punarindratAM surapatiH brAhmaM padaM

vAJNchhati

brahmA shaivapadaM shivo haripadaM chAshAvadhiM ko

gataH ||

 

The penniless man wishes for a hundred, the one who

has hundred wants a thousand, the one with a housand ,

a lakh. The one with a lakh wants to be the king, the

king wants to be the emperor, and the emperor wants to

be Indra (king of Gods), Indra wants Brahma's

position, Brahma Shiva's and Shiva VishhNu's ... who

has ever been able to kill desire ?

 

Glories of Great Man

--------------------

 

nindantu nItinipuNA yadi vA stuvantu

lakshmIH samAvishatu gachchhatu vA yatheshhTaM |

adyaiva vA maraNamastu yugAntare vA

nyAyyAtpathaH pravichalanti padaM na dhIrAH ||

 

Whether the philosophers praise him or criticize,

whether Lakshmi enters the house or goes away as she

wishes, whether death is today itself or after an eon,

great men never step a foot away from the path of

justice.

 

Sloka about Lord Shiva

----------------------

 

svayaM maheshaH shavshuro nageshaH sakhA dhaneshashcha

suto gaNeshaH |

tathApi bhikshATanameva shambhoH balIyasI

kevalamIshvarechchhA ||

 

Himself the great lord, his father in law the king of

mountains, his friend the king of wealth, his and his

son the lord of the gaNas. even then roaming around

begging for food is Shiva's destiny, only God's

wish is powerful ...

 

Glories of Teacher

------------------

 

adhigatya guroH GYAnaM chhAtrebhyo vitaranti ye |

vidyA vAtsalya nidhayaH shikshakA mama daivataM ||

 

The teachers who distribute knowledge among the

students after getting it from their gurus, and who

are storehouses of love and knowledge, are indeed like

God to me.

 

Krishna's qualities are beyond description

---------

 

asitagirisamaM syAt.h kajjalaM sindhu pAtraM

surataruvarashAkhA lekhanI patramurvI |

likhati yadi gR^ihItvA shAradA sarvakAlaM

tadapi tava guNAnAM Isha pAraM na yAti ||

 

The ink may be like a black mountain, the sea may be

the inkpot, a branch of desire tree may be used as a

pen, and the whole earth be used as the paper. If

even Goddess Sarasvati writes for all the time using

all this material, even then, O Krishna, she will not

come to the end of describing Your good qualities.
