SLOKAS!!

Hmm, I shall give a string of slokas and their meanings starting from this blog. If i may be permitted to blow my own trumpet, these are from my class six Sanskrit textbook. I somehow still remember these, but not slokas from other classes.

na chourahaaryam na cha raajahaaryam
na bhraatrubhaajyam na cha bhaarakaari
vyaye krute vardhata eva nityam
vidyaadhanam sarvadhanapradhaanam

The wealth called education cannot be stolen by thieves, cannot be taken away by the king (let's say, the authorities), cannot be divided by brothers, is not a cause for burden. It increases on being spent, it is the most important among all wealth
