SUBHASHITHANI:572
शतं दद्यान् न विवदेद् इति विज्ञस्य संमतम् ।
विना हेतुम् अपि द्वन्द्वम् एतन् मूर्खस्य लक्षणम् ॥ ३३ ॥
śataṃ
dadyān na vivaded iti vijñasya saṃmatam |
vinā hetum
api dvandvam etan mūrkhasya lakṣaṇam || 3.33 ||
One should yield in
hundred issues but not quarrel- that is the way of the wise; But fighting
without any cause is the sign of the fool.
अप्य् ऊहन्ति मनो धीरास् तस्माद् रहसि मन्त्रयेत् ॥ ३४ ॥
varṇākāra-pratidhvānair netra-vaktra-vikārataḥ |
apy ūhanti mano dhīrās tasmād rahasi mantrayet || 3.34 ||
The wise read the minds of others by colour, form, and voice and as also movement in the eye or mouth; therefore, hold a conversation only in private.
वेद्यानाम् आतुरः श्रेयान् व्यसनी यो नियोगिनाम् ।
विदुषां जीवनं मूर्खः सद्-वर्णो जीवनं सताम् ॥ ३५ ॥
vedyānām
āturaḥ śreyān vyasanī yo niyoginām |
viduṣāṃ
jīvanaṃ mūrkhaḥ sad-varṇo jīvanaṃ satām || 3.35 ||
Physicians thrive on sick
men, state officers thrive on vicious people, the wise pray upon fools, good
people live on sattvic people.
चारश् चक्षुर् महीभर्तुर् यस्य नास्त्य् अन्ध एव सः ॥ ३६ ॥
bhavet sva-para-rāṣṭrāṇāṃ kāryākāryāvalokane |
cāraś cakṣur mahībhartur yasya nāsty andha eva saḥ || 3.36 ||
In deciding what is to be done and what is to be avoided a king should engage his spies. They are the king’s eyes. One who has not one is considered blind.
ஒற்றும் உரைசான்ற நூலும் இவையிரண்டும்
தெற்றென்க மன்னவன் கண். Thirukkural 518
तीर्थाश्रम-सुर-स्थाने शास्तर-विज्ञान-हेतुना ।
तपस्वि-व्यञ्जनोपेतैः स्व-चरैः सह संवसेत् ॥ ३७ ॥
tīrthāśrama-sura-sthāne
śāstara-vijñāna-hetunā |
tapasvi-vyañjanopetaiḥ
sva-caraiḥ saha saṃvaset || 3.37 ||
A king should hold
discourses with his emissaries, having the guise of ascetics, under the pretext
of studying holy texts, at places of pilgrimage, hermitages, and temples.
என்செயினும் சோர்விலது ஒற்று. -Thirukkural 586
षट्-कर्णो भिद्यते मन्त्रस् तथा प्राप्तश् च वार्तया ।
इत्य् आत्मना द्वितीयेन मन्त्रः कार्यो मही-भृता ॥ ३८ ॥
ṣaṭ-karṇo
bhidyate mantras tathā prāptaś ca vārtayā |
ity ātmanā
dvitīyena mantraḥ kāryo mahī-bhṛtā || 3.38 ||
That
which is (heard) by six ears gets leaked out; that which is (heard) by four
ears gets affirmed. That which stays between the two ears, even Lord brahma
cannot meet the end of it!
