Noble Words : A stitch in time saves nine!

During the course of the life, we might indulge ourself into wrongful doings. Those act may appear to be correct in begining, but later it creates a lot of problem in life. To prevent them from getting into bigger issue, a timely action helps us to withstand such issue. Timely action helps by allowing you to address issues or opportunities as they arise, preventing problems from escalating, improving efficiency, reducing stress from last-minute rushes, building credibility, and demonstrating respect for others' time by staying on schedule and meeting deadlines. We have this important lesson taugh in ancient sanskrit through these lines :

राजा राष्ट्रकृतं पापं राज्ञाम्य पापः पुरोहितः

भर्ता च स्त्रीकृतं पापं शिष्य पापं गुरुः तथा.

Raajaa raashtrakrutam paapm raagyaamya paph purohitah.
Bhartaa cha sweekrutam paapm shishya paapm guruh tathaa.

Raashtrakrutam = Raashtra + krutam.
Rashtra = kingdom.
Krutam = done by.
Paapm = act of breaking a law of one's religion, wrongdoings,shortcomings.
Raagyaamya = of the king's. Purohita = priest. (in olden times the main priest of a king used to guide him in the matters of ruling his subjects and they were reverentially called 'Guru'.
Bhartaa = husband.
Stree = wife, woman.
Shishya = student.
Guru = a teacher.

If the subjects of a King indulge in wrongdoings, he is responsible for it. And if the King does the same his priest (counsellor) is responsible for it. A husband is responsible for the wrongdoings of his wife and a teacher is responsible for the wrongdoings of his students.

The main teaching of these lines indicates that a ruler and his counsellors, a husband and a teacher are responsible for and can control the wrongdoings and sinful behaviour of their subjects and subordinates for the overall benefit of the Society. Their timely and stern action can dissuade their subordinates from indulging in wrongdoings.

Learning is Passion!!
