Kabir ke Dohe Doha 77 meaning
saeen itana deejie, ja men kutum samay
main bhee bhookha na rahoon, sadhu na bhookha jay
साईं इतना दीजिए, जा में कुटुम समाय।
मैं भी भूखा न रहूँ, साधु न भूखा जाय॥
O Lord, give me just enough to look after my family, so that I do not go hungry and no guest at my door leaves hungry either.
What it means
Contentment is asking for enough, not for endless more. Enough to care for your family and to share with others is true prosperity. Greed never feels full; gratitude does.How it helps in real life
- With money: Before stretching for a bigger home loan, ask what 'enough' means for your family. Borrow for needs, not for showing off.
- Helping others: When you cook dinner, make one extra portion and give it to the night watchman. Enough for you, and a little to share.
हिंदी में अर्थ
हे मालिक, इतना दीजिए जिसमें मेरा परिवार पल जाए। मैं भी भूखा न रहूँ और कोई साधु या मेहमान मेरे दरवाज़े से भूखा न जाए।
संतोष का मतलब है पर्याप्त माँगना, अंतहीन नहीं। परिवार का पालन और दूसरों से बाँटने भर का होना ही असली समृद्धि है।
