दैवेन ते हतधियो... (Who are weak?) -Wise Old Men

I ॐ श्रीगुरुभ्यो नमः।
I वन्दे संस्कृतमातरम् I

दैवेन ते हतधियो भवतः प्रसंगात्
सर्वाशुभोपशमनाद्वि मुखेन्द्रिया ये।
कुर्वन्ति कामसुखलेशलवाय दीना
लोभाभिभूतमनसोऽकुशलानि शश्वत् ॥

daiven te hatadhiyo bhavatah prasangaat,
savashubhopashamanadvi mukhendriya ye.
kurvanti kAmsukhaleshalavAya,
lobhAbhi bhootamanasO kushalAni shashravt.

English Translation:
Who are weak?
Those whose mind gets corrupted easily
(perhaps due to influence of fate).
Those who lose faith in the almighty (who can set right everything)
and go the other way.
Those who get greedy even for a small portion of
material pleasures.
Those who will always do the wrong thing.
They are the people who are really weak.

Till Greed is alive, Suppression will survive.

Translation in Hindi:
जब तक लालच मरेगा नहीं ,
तब तक शोषण रुकेगा नहीं |

Translation in Kannada (By Sahana Harekrishna):
ದುರಾಸೆ ಇರುವವರೆಗೆ ಶೋಷಣೆ ಇರುತ್ತದೆ ।

-Brilliant Friend

The brilliance of your children... -Sahana Harekrishna

The brilliance of your children starts sprouting from the day you stop comparing them with each other.

Translation in Hindi:
आपके बच्चों का तेजस उस दिन से बढ़ना शुरू होता है जिस दिन से आप उनके भीतर अंतर करना छोड़ देते हैं |

Translation in Kannada:
ಎಂದಿನಿಂದ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಮಕ್ಕಳ ನಡುವೆ ಹೋಲಿಕೆಯನ್ನು
ನಿಲ್ಲಿಸುತ್ತೀರೋ
ಅಂದಿನಿಂದ ಅವರ ಏಳಿಗೆ ಆರಂಭವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ ।

-Sahana Harekrishna

प्रतिक्षणमयं कायः ... -हितोपदेश

प्रतिक्षणमयं कायः क्षीयमाणो न लक्ष्यते।
आमकुम्भ इवाम्भःस्थो विशीर्णः सन् विभाव्यते ||

English Translation of stanza from Hitopadesha:
The slow erosion of the human body is as invisible as the erosion of a pot of water.
