Strength

Svapnehe api evam vidhaa chintaa

“I am alone and helpless. I am weak and destitute”.—Even in its dreams the lion does not think like this.

Here the poet draws our attention to lion. In this subhaashita he is conveying the message that people have to be strong. They might be alone and/or homeless but should never lose faith and hope.

Subhashita(singular) or Subhashitaani(prural) -- is a sanskrit word(s) -- means good sayings.

ShashiKiran really good collection. Make this to grow huge. Keep on collecting and posting. All the best

hey ,
I too am fan of this subhashita, and have written in here (http://bachodi.wordpress.com/2006/12/06/sanskrit-quote-alone-i-am/)

I studied it during my high school.
