ಮೂಲ & ಕಥೆ

Bhartrhari Niti Shataka · Bhartrhari · Classical Sanskrit literature (c. 5th century CE)

The Niti Shataka is the first of Bhartrhari's three celebrated centuries of verse (Shatakatraya), gathering a hundred epigrams on right conduct and the ways of the world. Among its verses on virtue and character, this shloka beautifully lists the genuine ornaments of a human being — learning, charity and compassion — declaring them far superior to earrings, bracelets and sandal paste.

ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆ

This verse has long inspired the learned and the generous; teachers recount that students who take it to heart come to value a well-read mind and an open hand above any finery, understanding that the kindness one shows others is the only adornment that truly shines.

ಶ್ರೋತ್ರಂ ಶ್ರುತೇನೈವ ಕುಣ್ಡಲೇನ ದಾನೇನ ಪಾಣಿರ್ನ ತು ಕಙ್ಕಣೇನ। ವಿಭಾತಿ ಕಾಯಃ ಕರುಣಾಪರಾಣಾಂ ಪರೋಪಕಾರೈರ್ನ ತು ಚನ್ದನೇನ॥

śrotraṁ śrutenaiva na kuṇḍalena dānena pāṇir na tu kaṅkaṇena। vibhāti kāyaḥ karuṇāparāṇāṁ paropakārair na tu candanena॥

ಅರ್ಥ:The ear is adorned by sacred learning, not by an earring; the hand by charity, not by a bracelet. The body of the compassionate shines through acts of kindness to others, not through sandalwood paste. The verse teaches that the true ornaments of a person are learning, generosity and benevolence — not jewellery or cosmetics.
