Kabir ke Dohe Doha 57 meaning
jati na poocho sadhu kee, pooch leejiye jnan
mol karo talavar ka, pada rahan do myan
जाति न पूछो साधु की, पूछ लीजिये ज्ञान।
मोल करो तलवार का, पड़ा रहन दो म्यान॥
Do not ask a holy person about his caste; ask about his knowledge. Value the sword, and let the sheath lie where it is.
What it means
Judge people by their wisdom and character, not by birth, background or appearance. Labels are just the sheath; what matters is the quality of the person within.How it helps in real life
- At work: Hiring for your team? Judge candidates on skills and character, not on which college or hometown they come from.
- With friends: Your new flatmate comes from a very different background. Get to know their mind and heart, not their labels.
हिंदी में अर्थ
किसी साधु से उसकी जाति मत पूछो, उसका ज्ञान पूछो। तलवार का मोल करो, म्यान को पड़ा रहने दो।
लोगों को उनके ज्ञान और चरित्र से परखिए, जन्म या पहचान से नहीं। ठप्पा तो म्यान है, असली चीज़ भीतर का इंसान है।
