ಮೂಲ & ಕಥೆ

Hitopadesha (Subhashita) · Narayana Pandita (compiler of the Hitopadesha) · Classical Sanskrit literature (c. 9th–12th century CE)

The Hitopadesha is a collection of instructive animal fables in prose interspersed with verse, composed to teach princes wisdom and statecraft through delightful stories. This verse appears among its niti-shlokas, distilling the entire purpose of learning into a single elegant chain that begins with vidya and ends with sukha.

ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆ

Generations of Sanskrit teachers have observed that students who internalise this verse approach their studies with reverence rather than pride; it is often said that the truly learned are recognised not by their boasting but by the gentle humility this shloka extols.

ಉತ್ತಮ ಸಮಯMorning before beginning studies, or at the start of any learning endeavour

Recite the verse calmly, reflecting on each stage of the chain — knowledge, humility, worthiness, wealth, righteousness and happiness.

Contemplate how true knowledge is meant to make one humble and useful, and let the verse set the intention before opening a book or beginning a class.

ಈ ಪುಟದಲ್ಲಿ ಪೂರ್ಣ विद्या ददाति विनयम् 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 is a celebrated Subhashita (wise saying) preserved in the Hitopadesha, a classical Sanskrit collection of moral fables compiled by Narayana. It is also widely quoted in the broader Subhashita tradition.
It teaches that genuine knowledge expresses itself first as humility. From humility one becomes worthy, from worthiness comes prosperity, prosperity rightly used becomes righteousness, and righteousness finally yields lasting happiness.
Because it captures the true aim of education in a single line — that learning should refine character and make a person humble and useful, rather than merely clever or proud. Many institutions adopt it as a motto.
