SUBHASHITHANI:214
There
never has been, there never will be, nor is there now, anyone who is always
blamed or always praised. ( Dhamma pada )
DHAMMA PADA (PALI)
Poranametam Atula netam
ajjatanamiva
nindanti tunhimasinam nindanti bahubhaninam
mitabhanimpi nindanti natthi loke anindito. Verse 227:
nindanti tunhimasinam nindanti bahubhaninam
mitabhanimpi nindanti natthi loke anindito. Verse 227:
It is not new, O Atula! It has always been done
from ancient times. They blame one who is silent, they blame one who speaks
much, they blame one who speaks little. There is no one in this world who is
not blamed.
जाड्यं ह्रीमति गण्यते व्रतरुचौ दम्भ:
शुचौ कैतवं
शूरे निर्घृणता मुनौ विमतिता दैन्यं प्रियालापिनि |
तेजस्विन्यवलिप्तता मुखरता वक्तर्यशक्ति: स्थिरे
तत्को नाम गुणो भवेत्स गुणिनां यो दुर्जनैर्नाङ्कित: || Niti satakam
Evil men decry a modest person as dull, a fasting pious person as a hypocrite, a holy person as a charlatan, a brave man as cruel, a hermit as foolish, a soft spoken person as meek, a bright man as vain, an orator as a glib talker, and a patient man as weak -willed. Which is the attribute of the virtuous the wicked man do not disparage?

"Whoever has not
seen Rama or whomsoever Rama has not seen, that person stands condemned by all
people in this world, and even his own self condemns him".
अन्नं न निन्द्यात् तद्व्रतम् ।तैत्तिरीय उपनिषद् 3.7.1)
इन्दुं निन्दति चक्रवाक
युगलं भासां निधिं कौशिकः अन्नं न निन्द्यात् तद्व्रतम् ।तैत्तिरीय उपनिषद् 3.7.1)
food is not to be despised ; that shall be a vow.
स्वादु क्षीरमरोचकी सुकृतिनां पापी जडः

The chakravaka birds despise the moon, the owls hate the sun, Sweet milk
is disliked by a drunkard, good people are hated by the sinners, the fools
avoid the wise men. The rogues hate any one and every one, the villagers are
critical of the men from the cities. Is there anything in the creation that is
not criticised by some one or the other?
प्रायेणात्र कुलन्वितं कुकुलजाः श्री वल्लभं दुर्भगाः
प्रायेणात्र कुलन्वितं कुकुलजाः श्री वल्लभं दुर्भगाः
दातारं कृपणा ऋजूननृजस्तेजस्विनं कातराः ।
वैरूप्योपहताश्च कान्तवपुषं धर्माश्रयं पापिनो
नानाशास्त्रविचक्षणं च पुरुषं निन्दन्ति मूर्खा जनाः ॥
वैरूप्योपहताश्च कान्तवपुषं धर्माश्रयं पापिनो
नानाशास्त्रविचक्षणं च पुरुषं निन्दन्ति मूर्खा जनाः ॥
The man of noble family is hated by the one from uncultured family, a
rich man by ill-tempered woman, the generous by the miser, the straight forward
man by the crooked, the strong is despised by the timid; The ugly hates the
handsome , the good man by the evil, a vedic scholar is insulted by the fools.
News from Florida – A woman was
charged with hitting her husband with vacuum cleaner.
A Sanskrit lover has a written a humorous verse calling
it an unAryan act:
यो गेहे नितरामकार्यनितः कर्तव्यमूढस्चयः
तं दारा कुशदण्डताडन विधानेनार्चयेत् नान्यथा |
सानार्या न च धीमतीति बहुधा निन्दन्ति लोके जनाः
या भार्या परिताडयत्यपि पतिं निर्वातमार्जेन वै ||.
( कुशदण्डमं : broom stick निर्वातमार्जं /
निर्वातयंत्रं : vacuum cleaner )
yo gehe nitarAmakAryanirataH kartavyamUDhasca yaH

People were criticising the wife - "Resorting to vacuum
cleaner to fix the errant husband is anArya lakShaNam. It’s proper to use only
broom-stick.”
निन्दन्तु नीतिनिपुणा यदि वा स्तुवन्तु
लक्ष्मीः समाविशतु गच्छतु वा यथेष्ठं ।
अद्यैव वा मरणं अस्तु युगान्तरे वा
न्याय्यात्पथः प्रविचलन्ति पदं न धीराः । ।
लक्ष्मीः समाविशतु गच्छतु वा यथेष्ठं ।
अद्यैव वा मरणं अस्तु युगान्तरे वा
न्याय्यात्पथः प्रविचलन्ति पदं न धीराः । ।
Discerning men may slight or laud them, the goddess of wealth ,Lakshmi, may come or go as she likes, death may occur today or after ages, but strong willed men do not deviate from the path of justice.
न चात्मानं प्रशंसेद्बा परनिन्दाञ्च वर्ज्जयेत् ।
वेदनिन्दां देवनिन्दां प्रयत्नेन विवर्ज्जयेत् ॥ Hamsa
gita
Na chatmaanam prasamsedvaa paranidaamcha varjayet I
Veda nindaam deva nindaam prayatnena vivarjayet II
Do not indulge in Self-glorification ,
abusing others should be avoided, also make all effort to avoid denouncing the
vedas or devatas.
एतद्विद्वान्मदुदितं ज्ञानविज्ञाननैपुणम् ।
न निन्दति न च स्तौति लोके चरति सूर्यवत् ।। Srimad Bhagavatham
“He who comes to know (what is meant by) this ripeness of Jñāna and Vijñāna as taught by Me(
Sri Krishna) would neither extol nor revile anyone and would move about in the
world (free from partiality and prejudice) as the sun.”
SRI KRISHNAYA THUBHYAM NAMAH
