To day's Subhashit.

येषां न विद्या न तपो न दानं ज्ञानं न शीलं न गुणो न धर्मः  |
ते  मृत्युलोके  भुवि  भार भूता  मनुष्य  रूपेण मृगाश्चरन्ति ||

Yeshaam na vidya na tapo na daanam gyaanam na sheelam na guno na dharmhh,
Te mrutyaloke bhuvi bhaarbhootaa manushya rupena mrugaascharanti,

Yeshaam = those.     Na = not.  Vidyaa =  learning.  Tapo= religious austerity.  Daanan = charity.
 Gyaan = knowledge.      Sheela = moral character.     Guna = virtues,talent.   Dharma = religion.
Te =  they.    Mrutyuloka =  the earth we live in.   Bhuvi =  the earth.    Bhaar = burden.
Bhoota = become.     Manushya = human beings.   Roopena = in the form of.    Mrugaa = animals, deers.
Charanti = grazing, moving.

i.e.      Those persons who are not learned, are not austere and charitable, do not have moral character, virtues and are not religiously minded, are a burden on the Earth we live in, and are just like animals in the form of human beings .
           (This Subhashit outlines the qualities  of head and heart in human beings , which differentiates them from less intelligent animals and beasts.   A person devoid of these qualities is just like a grazing animal.)
