स्थानस्थितानि पूज्यंते पूज्यंते च पदे स्थिताः ।

स्थानभ्रष्टा न पूज्यंते कुशा दंता नखा नराः ॥ २६१

Sthanasthitani pujyante pujyante cha pade sthitah ।

Sthanabhrashta na pujyante kusha danta nakha narah ॥

Things which are in their useful positions are respected but are not respected

if out of place. Like holy grass, teeth and nails.

वरं एको गुणी पुत्रो न च मूर्खशतान्यपि ।

एकश्चंद्रस्तमो हन्ति न च तारागणोऽपि च ॥ २६२

Varam eko gunee putro na cha murkhashatanyapi ।

Ekashchandrastamo hanti na cha taragano api cha ॥

It is better to have one son with good values than having a hundred

foolish sons. Darkness is removed by one moon and not by a group of stars.

विक्लवो वीर्यहीनो यः स दैवमनुवर्तते ।

न दैवं पर्युपासन्ते वीराः संभावितात्मनः ॥ २६३

Viklavo viryahino yah sa daivamanuvartate ।

Na daivam paryupasante virah sambhavitatmanah ॥

A timid, powerless person believes in God given fortune.

A powerful person with self esteem does not depend on luck

स्वस्थादेवावमानेपि देहिनस्वद्वरं रज: ॥ २६४

Padahatam sadutthaya murdhanamadhirohati ।

Svasthadevabamanepi dehinasvadvaram rajah ॥

Dust particle which raises up when disturbed by foot movement is

better than a person who sits calmly in spite of being insulted.

समानी व आकूति: समाना हृदयानि व: । 
समानमस्तु वो मनो यथा व: सुसहासति ॥ २६५

Samani va akuti samana hrudayani vah ।

Samanamastu vo mano yatha vah susahasati ॥

Let your conclusions be alike, let your hearts be the same.

Let your minds think alike to make the group a successful one.
