English Translation of Sanskrit Quote
Oh God, give me other hundreds of sorrows as you wish. I will bear them.
But don't write my destiny to recite a poem to an uninterested person. Never! Never!! Never!!!
Thank you very much, Shri Paranjape. I learned this verse in 6th or 7th grade Sanskrit class but forgot the first line. I must say you are doing a great service by running this blog. Incidentally, do you like my poems? If you do, please leave a comment on my blog. Thank you.
ReplyDeletewow, I so share that sentiment! I love to write, and I always think of Spirit as providing not just the ideas to write about, but also the audience.
ReplyDeletewarmly,

Hi Kiran,
ReplyDeleteMy dad used to utter this proverb when i was a kid. It goes like "Anantaparam keela shabda shastram.... "ends with "ksheeramibambu madhyat". I have forgotten the middle. It was about learning what is relevant to one, like a duck filters out its food from water. Do you happen to know the entire proverb?
