What it means
These legendary givers held nothing back. Most of us won't face such tests, but we can learn their spirit: when someone truly needs you, don't let comfort or possessions stand in the way.हिंदी में अर्थ
कर्ण ने अपना कवच-चर्म, शिबि ने अपना मांस, जीमूतवाहन ने अपने प्राण और दधीचि ने अपनी हड्डियाँ दे दीं। महात्माओं के लिए कुछ भी अदेय नहीं।
इन महान दानियों ने कुछ भी नहीं रोका। हमारे सामने ऐसी परीक्षाएँ शायद न आएँ, पर उनकी भावना सीख सकते हैं: जब किसी को सच में ज़रूरत हो, तो सुविधा या संपत्ति को आड़े न आने दें।
