ಮೂಲ & ಕಥೆ

Sanskrit Subhashita (niti tradition; cited in Chanakya Niti literature) · Anonymous (traditional niti subhashita) · Classical Sanskrit literature

This verse belongs to the great body of niti-shlokas that distilled practical and moral wisdom for kings, ministers and ordinary people alike. By counting how rarely each kind of excellence appears, it makes a striking point about the supreme value of generosity, and it has long been quoted to praise those rare souls who give without expectation of return.

ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆ

Tradition holds that the rare true giver described in this verse earns merit beyond that of heroes and scholars, for while their fame fades, the blessings of the selfless giver are said to follow them across lifetimes.

ಶತೇಷು ಜಾಯತೇ ಶೂರಃ ಸಹಸ್ರೇಷು ಪಣ್ಡಿತಃ। ವಕ್ತಾ ದಶಸಹಸ್ರೇಷು ದಾತಾ ಭವತಿ ವಾ ವಾ॥

śateṣu jāyate śūraḥ sahasreṣu ca paṇḍitaḥ। vaktā daśa-sahasreṣu dātā bhavati vā na vā॥

ಅರ್ಥ:सौ मनुष्यों में एक शूर उत्पन्न होता है; हजार में एक पण्डित; दस हजार में एक श्रेष्ठ वक्ता — परन्तु सच्चा दाता हो भी सकता है और नहीं भी। यह श्लोक मानवीय गुणों को उनकी दुर्लभता के अनुसार क्रम देता है और सच्ची दानशीलता को सबसे ऊपर रखता है, जो इतनी विरल है कि असंख्य लोगों में भी उसके मिलने का भरोसा नहीं।

ಈ ಪುಟದಲ್ಲಿ ಪೂರ್ಣ शतेषु जायते शूरः ಕನ್ನಡ ಲಿಪಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಇದೆ — ಅವೇ ಮೂಲ ಶ್ಲೋಕಗಳು, ಅಕ್ಷರ-ಅಕ್ಷರ ಲಿಪ್ಯಂತರಗೊಂಡು, ನೀವು ಸುಲಭವಾಗಿ ಓದಿ ಪಠಿಸಬಹುದು. ಯಾವುದೇ ಸಾಲನ್ನು (ಅಥವಾ ▶ ಬಟನ್) ಒತ್ತಿ ಅದರ ಪಠಣ ಕೇಳಿ.
ಹೌದು — ಲಿಪಿ ಮಾತ್ರ ಬದಲಾಗುತ್ತದೆ; ಪದಗಳು ಮತ್ತು ಅವುಗಳ ಅರ್ಥ ಮೂಲವೇ. ಈ ಪುಟದ ಶ್ಲೋಕ-ಶ್ಲೋಕ ಅರ್ಥ, ಪ್ರಯೋಜನಗಳು, ಪಾರಾಯಣ ವಿಧಿ ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಅನ್ವಯಿಸುತ್ತವೆ.
It means: 'Among a hundred a hero is born, among a thousand a scholar, among ten thousand a great orator — but a true giver may or may not exist.' It ranks virtues by how rarely they appear in people.
Because selfless generosity is the rarest virtue of all. Courage, learning and eloquence, though uncommon, can still be found in fixed proportions, but a person who gives truly and selflessly is so rare that the verse says he may not be found even among countless people.
It belongs to the classical Sanskrit niti (moral wisdom) tradition and is widely cited among the Subhashitas associated with Chanakya and the broader literature of practical ethics.
