Edge of the sword -----


Bharthrihari the ancient grammarian and poet has made the following observations regarding
'Behaviour'.

The laws relating to behaviour are difficult to learn and can hardly be mastered even by an ascetic!

The man who wishes to be respectfully silent is looked upon as dumb!

The man who talks agreeably as too forward!

if a man stands near at hand ,he may be regarded as troublesome!

And if stands ,far off , people will call him cold hearted!

The patient man may be branded as timid!

And the impetuous man as ill bred!
