सुभाषितम्

शैले शैले न माणिक्यं मौक्तिकं न गजे गजे

Sanskrit Proverb on Virtue
Sanskrit

शैले शैले न माणिक्यं मौक्तिकं न गजे गजे।
साधवो न हि सर्वत्र चन्दनं न वने वने॥

śaile śaile na māṇikyaṃ mauktikaṃ na gaje gaje।
sādhavo na hi sarvatra candanaṃ na vane vane॥

Meaning in English

Gems & precious stones are not found in every mountain, not every elephant has a pearl on its forehead. Similarly, noble & virtuous people are not found everywhere and sandalwood trees are not found or grown in all forests.

भावार्थ

हर एक पर्वत पर माणिक नहीं मिलते, हर एक हाथी के मस्तक से मुक्तामणि नहीं मिलता, (संसार में) सभी जगह सज्जन लोग नहीं मिलते, (उसी प्रकार) चंदन के वृक्ष हर एक वन में उपलब्ध नहीं होते।
