एकेन तिष्ठताधस्तादन्येनोपरि तिष्ठता ।
दातृयाचकयोर्भेदः कराभ्यामेव सूचितः ॥
With one hand held below and the other held above, the difference between the giver and the receiver is shown by the hands themselves.
What it means
The giver's hand is literally above. This isn't about pride; it's about dignity. Whenever you can, choose to be the one who gives — and when you must receive, receive with gratitude and give back later.हिंदी में अर्थ
एक हाथ नीचे और दूसरा ऊपर रहकर — दाता और याचक का अंतर हाथ ही बता देते हैं।
दाता का हाथ सचमुच ऊपर होता है। यह घमंड नहीं, गरिमा की बात है। जब भी हो सके देने वाले बनिए, और जब लेना पड़े तो कृतज्ञता से लीजिए और बाद में लौटाइए।
