न गच्छति विना पानं व्याधिरौषधशब्दतः ।

विनाऽपरोक्षानुभवं ब्रह्मशब्दैर्न मुच्यते ॥ 1101

 

Na gachchhati vina panam vyadhiraushadhashabdatah l

Vinaaparokshanubhavam brahmashabdairna muchyate ॥

 

A disease is not cured if one simply utters the name of a medicine. Without direct realisation one cannot be liberated by the mere utterance of the word Brahman.

 

बालो वा यदि वा वृद्धो युवा वा गृहमागतः ।
तस्य पूजा विधातव्या सर्वस्याभ्यागतो गुरुः ॥ 1102

 

Balo va yadi va vruddho yuva va gruhamagatah l

Tasya puja vidhatavya sarvasyabhyagato guruh ॥

 

Whether it is a child, an old person or an young pereson, whoever comes to

your house should be received with respect. A guest deserves respect by everyone.

 

यदाचरित कल्याणि  शुभं वा यदि वाऽशुभम् ।

तदेव लभते भद्रे कर्त्ता कर्मजमात्मनः ॥ 1103

 

Yadacharita Kalyani Shubham va yadi va ashubham l

Tadeva labhate bhadre kartta karmajatmanah ॥

 

Whatever deed a persin does, good or bad, the result is appropriately

good or bad. The doer has to bear the fruits of his deeds.

 

शून्यमापूर्णतामेति मृत्युरप्यमृतायते ।
आपत्सम्पदिवाभाति विद्वज्जनसमागमात् ॥ 1104

 

Shunyamapurnatameti mrutyuapyamrutayate l

Apatsampadivabhati vidvajjanasamagamat ॥

Void becomes full, death turns into immortality, adversity

turns to prosperity in the company of wise men.

 

आपदां कथितः पन्था इन्द्रियाणामसंयमः ।

तज्जय: संपदामं मार्गो येनेष्टम् तेन गम्यताम् ॥ 1105

 

Apadam kathitah pantha indriyanamasamyamah l

Tajjayah sampadam margo yeneshtam tena gamyatam ॥

 

 

Not controlling the senses is the road to adversity.  Conquering the

senses is the road to prosperity. Choose either of the two which you like.
