विद्या ददाति विनयं विनयाद् याति पात्रताम् ।
पात्रत्वात् धनमाप्नोति धनात् धर्मं ततः सुखम् ॥
vidyā dadāti vinayaṃ vinayād yāti pātratām ।
pātratvāt dhanamāpnoti dhanāt dharmaṃ tataḥ sukham ॥
True/complete knowledge gives discipline, from discipline comes worthiness, from worthiness one gets wealth, from wealth (one does) good deeds, from that (comes) joy.
Let us remember that one book, one pen, one child, and one teacher can change the world, as already witnessed by Malala Yousafzai. To get complete knowledge about a particular thing, one must follow the sat vachana (noble persons) mentioned by Ayurveda Acharyas (Cha. Su. 25/40). The ultimate aim behind these texts is to ignite and improve the knowledge of the Ayurvedic Community.
