Niti Shataka 14 meaning
varam parvatadurgeshu bhrantam vanacharaih saha
na moorkhajanasamparkah surendrabhavaneshv-api
वरं पर्वतदुर्गेषु भ्रान्तं वनचरैः सह ।
न मूर्खजनसम्पर्कः सुरेन्द्रभवनेष्वपि ॥
It is better to wander through rough mountain places with the creatures of the forest than to keep company with fools, even in the palace of the king of the gods.
What it means
The company you keep shapes your mind more than any comfort around you. A simple life among good influences beats a luxurious one among foolish, toxic people. Choose your circle carefully.हिंदी में अर्थ
दुर्गम पहाड़ों में वनचरों के साथ भटकना अच्छा, पर इंद्र के महल में भी मूर्खों का साथ अच्छा नहीं।
आपका साथ आपके मन को किसी भी सुख-सुविधा से ज़्यादा प्रभावित करता है। बुरे साथ के महल से अच्छे साथ की सादगी बेहतर है। अपने लोग सोच-समझकर चुनें।
