I doubt most of the Indian People are reading our scriptures in today’s time!

Most of these are in #Sanskrit, we just show superficial concern for our culture and history but very few try to understand the Sanskrit or atleast texts available in Indian Languages!

#Indian #scriptures hold timeless #wisdom, yet we often seek #Western validation. Embracing our heritage can reveal answers within, reminding us that profound insights lie in the #sacred #verses of our own #culture.

Meaning of the #Shloka

A person born in one’s own country, even if possessing many virtues, often faces resentment.

Though his own wife may be beautiful, people are still drawn towards the wives of others.

These verses reflect on #human tendencies, pointing out how people often fail to appreciate the qualities and virtues of those close to them or from their own land, and are instead drawn to others or to what belongs to others. This theme of undervaluing the familiar and overvaluing the #foreign is common in #philosophical and #ethical #literature.
