अमित्रं कुरुते मित्रं... -विदुर नीति

अमित्रं कुरुते मित्रं मित्रं द्वेष्टि हिनस्ति च |
कर्म चारभते दुष्टं तमाहुर्मूढचेतसम् ||

- विदुर नीति

भावार्थ - जो व्यक्ति मित्र बनाने के लिये अयोग्य व्यक्ति
को अपना मित्र बनाता है तथा मित्र बनाने के के योग्य व्यक्तियों
से द्वेष करता है और ऐसे कर्म करता है जिस से उन की हानि
हो या उन का नाश हो जाय, ऐसे व्यक्ति को मूर्ख कहा जाता है |

Amitram kurute mitram mitram dveshti hinasti cha.
karma chaarabhate dushtam tamaahurmoodhachetasam.

Amitram = not a friend. Kurute =makes Mitram =
a friend. Dveshti = hates. Hinasti = kills , harms.
Cha = and. = Karma = deeds. Cha + aarabhate .
Cha = and, Arabhate = begins. Dshtam= wicked,
inimical. Tam + aahuh +moodhachetasam. Tam =
to them. Aahuh =call Moodhchetasam= foolish, Silly.

A person who makes friendship with persons who are
not suitable for friendship and hates those who
are most suitable for friendship, and indulges in such
inimical activities against them which may harm or kill
them, is foolish and silly.
