Sanskrit Subhashita (niti tradition; cited in Chanakya Niti literature) · Anonymous (traditional niti subhashita) · Classical Sanskrit literature
Among the niti-shlokas that taught practical wisdom for safe and prudent living, this verse stands out for its sharp comparison between a venomous snake and a wicked man. By noting that the snake is the lesser danger because it can be charmed, it drives home the timeless caution to beware of those whose malice no remedy can cure, and it has long been quoted in the Chanakya tradition.

Wise counsellors have long invoked this verse to warn kings and ordinary folk alike; many were spared ruin, it is said, by heeding its lesson and keeping the malicious at a safe distance, having learned that no antidote exists for a wicked heart.

பொருள்:A snake is cruel, and a wicked man is cruel — but the wicked man is crueller than the snake; for a snake can be subdued by spells and herbs, yet by what can a wicked man be controlled? The verse warns that an evil-hearted person is more dangerous than a venomous serpent, since there exists no charm or remedy to restrain his malice.
