Kabir ke Dohe Doha 156 meaning
chaturaee soovai padhee, soi panjar mahin
phiri pramodhai an kaun, apan samajhai nahin
चतुराई सूवै पढ़ी, सोइ पंजर माहिं ।
फिरि प्रमोधै आन कौं, आपण समझै नाहिं ॥
The parrot learned clever words, yet it still sits in a cage. It goes on lecturing others but does not understand itself.
What it means
Repeating wise quotes doesn't make you free. If you are still trapped by the same habits, the knowledge hasn't sunk in. Understand first, then teach.How it helps in real life
- At work: You share leadership posts on LinkedIn daily but snap at your own team. This week, practise one idea before posting it.
- Phone & habits: You forward Gita quotes on the family WhatsApp group but still scroll till 2am. Pick one quote and live it tonight.
हिंदी में अर्थ
तोते ने चतुराई की बातें सीख लीं, फिर भी पिंजरे में ही बैठा है। दूसरों को उपदेश देता है, खुद कुछ नहीं समझता।
ज्ञान की बातें दोहराने से कोई मुक्त नहीं होता। अगर आप उन्हीं आदतों में फँसे हैं, तो ज्ञान भीतर नहीं उतरा। पहले समझिए, फिर समझाइए।
Spoken by Kabir.
