Noble Words : Falling under the weight of money !

The world is getting so mean and selfish. Many peoole in the hope of any benefit do not even bother about being disrespected. Especially the wicked person, who keep running after the person where they sense some benefit. To highlight the unique habit Sanskrit says :

अनुसरति करिकपोलं भ्रमरः श्रवणेन ताड्यमानोSपि |

गणयति न तिरस्कारं दानन्धविलोचनो नीचः||

Anusarati karikapolam bhramarah shravanena taadyamaanopi.
Ganayati na tiraskaaram daanaandhavilochano neechah.

Anusarati = goes after.
Kari = an elephant.
Kapolam = cheek.
Bhramarah = a kind of bumble bee.
Shravanena = by the ears.
Taadyamaanopi = Taadyamaano + api.
Taadyamaano = on being struck.
Api = even.
Ganayati = takes notice of.
Na = not.
Tiraskaaram = contempt.
Daanaandhavilochano = daan + andha + vilochano.
Daana = donation, giving away as charity.
Andha = blind.
Vilochano = eyes.
Neeechah = a wicked and mean person.

i.e. A bumble bee hovering over the cheeks of an elephant (in rut) goes after the elephant in spite of the elephant hitting it repeatedly with its large ears. In the same manner mean and wicked persons blinded by their desire to get alms from the rich persons also do not take any notice of the contempt shown towards them by the rich donor.

When an elephant is in rut a fluid flows from its cheeks, which attracts swarms of bumble bees. This phenomenon has been used as a simile for the behaviour of beggars towards their donors. It means that a person's greed grows so much that he loses his moral values ​​and principles, and does not hesitate to do wrong or even cause harm.
