Tulsi ke Dohe Doha 18 meaning
sahaj suhrid gur svami sikh, jo na karai sir mani
so pachitai aghai ur, avasi hoi hit hani
सहज सुहृद गुर स्वामि सिख, जो न करइ सिर मानि।
सो पछिताइ अघाइ उर, अवसि होइ हित हानि॥
Whoever ignores the advice of a true well-wisher, a teacher or a master, will regret it deeply in their heart, and will surely suffer harm to their own interests.
What it means
Advice from people who genuinely care can feel annoying in the moment. Ego wants to prove them wrong. Listen anyway; their perspective may save you years of regret.How it helps in real life
- With money: Your CA warned you against that high-return lending scheme. Before overruling him out of ego, ask him to explain his reasons once more.
- Health & body: Your mother keeps nagging you to get your blood pressure checked. Book the test this week and stop arguing about it.
हिंदी में अर्थ
जो सच्चे हितैषी, गुरु और स्वामी की सीख को सिर-माथे नहीं रखता, वह मन ही मन बहुत पछताता है और उसका नुकसान अवश्य होता है।
सच्चे हितैषियों की सलाह उस पल चुभ सकती है, और अहं उसे ठुकराना चाहता है। फिर भी सुनें; यह बाद के पछतावे से बचा सकती है।
