Thanks Swetha,
I also have never noticed this before. Thank you once again for sharing.

Now I am thinking, what would it look like when 2 such contradictory proverbs are expanded by the same person in an interval of 5 minutes. :whistle: :woohoo: :evil: :laugh:
Now this is a very interesting take on proverbs in English or 'kahavat'..

what do you say about this?


These are seemingly self contradictory idioms. In fact, everyone has his own idea. Ideas differ. So, there is an idiom for each opinion.

You may say that such person stands between two tools and thus he will fall.

Since you have more experience in years in job, have you come across such confusing situation?

It will be worthwhile to know!
"Udyogi nong purushoshinham upoiti Laxmi
Daibena dayom iti Kapurusha badanti"

Bhyagang Falati Sarbatra, na cha vidya,na cha daibacham!

These two Sanskrit adages present such contradictions!!

I do not remember any confusing situation. I just say that there are idioms for expressing even contrary views. If you believe that delay is must, say: Rome was not built in a day. If you want immediate action, say justice delayed is justice denied. But it will be odd to give contrary view at the same time.
Many people are not habituated in speaking English. They speak other Indian local language. Thus he / she may be good in English but fumbles while speaking it. In some cases, person gets nervous to communicate in English with other people who are also good in the same language. This could be another reason behind fumbling.
Yes Devyani you are absolutely correct. Even me I know how to speak but at the time of speaking or writing I will fail.
oh. is that so gulshan ji

May be chinmoy ji could be more kind enough to explain to me the translation of sanskrit

and also did you undergo similar situation?
@Swetha

I knew that I might be called upon to render it into English and my heart sank a little a bit! What I can try is a rough translation which would run like this:

A lion of a man believes that his enterprising spirit would enable him to win the blessings of Mother Laxmi! While a coward would always see the hand of Fate in it!

As to the second one:

Fate is supreme sujugating powers of all - be it that of the learned or divine!!!

As you have raised a very interesting topic,I have to think hard and find.Just give me a little time!!
One can develop their Speaking power by following techniques.


To understand to speak Language properly, You have to communicate this aloud.
To master to talk Language with complete confidence, You have to think within Language.
The harder an individual communicate Language out loud, the more rapidly become familiar with to speak that on a conversational level.
You must never get it wrong when you are practicing voiced English.

Nothing Succeeds Like Success But Failures Are the Pillars of Success!
Yes Ceeem Sir You are right in the Same way that After every night a morning come. After every loss a success come.It is a Style of nature.Without Suffering no gain.
One day,I did not talk or play with my niece and was preparing lecture notes.She came and asked me,"Swetha Maasi,are you Mad?"I was startled with her question and replied "what?!".She asked me again,"No,are you mad?". I was scratching my head thinking should I say her a yes or no.She then understood that I did not understand and she asked again "Are you mad at me because you did not play with me?".I was laughing as soon as she completed this question because she substituted the word "Mad" to "Angry" :D :D
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Swetha, your niece is really 'jamane ke saath'! Because today's younger generation IS using the word Mad for angry!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: In another few days, she would be ridiculing you for your proper English! :woohoo:

I agree with the niece. An angry man loses capacity to think rationally and commits foolish act. anger begins with madness and ends with repentance. amger is a state of temporary madness.

Once one of my teachers in the school flung a book at one of back-benchers before grinding out these words 'Pillar of Success'!!!
hahaha, imagine what would be my expression if i keep correcting my niece's english.....she would surely call me 'mad'

:) too much communication gap between generation gaps!
