हितोपदश - विद्या


विद्या शस्त्रस्य शास्त्रस्य द्वे विद्ये प्रतिपत्तये ।
आद्या हास्याय वृद्धत्वे द्वितीयाद्रियते सदा ॥


- हितोपदश


vidyA shastrasya shAstrasya dve vidye pratipattaye ।
AdyA hAsyasya vRiddhatve dvitIyAdriyate sdA ॥

The two kinds of education - scriptures and weapons; both are well respected. But as one gets old, his mastery on weapons becomes a joke and is laughed about. But his mastery on scriptures only becomes sharper and is respected more.
