Today's Subhashita.

अप्रार्थितं यथा दुःखं तथा सुखमपि स्वयं |
प्राणिनं  प्रतिपद्येत  सर्वं नियतियन्त्रितं  ||

अर्थ -           जिस प्रकार बिना अपनी इच्छा के ही हमें दुःख की स्थिति में
रहना पडता है उसी प्रकार सुख की स्थिति भी स्वयं ही  उपस्थित  हो जाती
है |   अतः यह  सिद्धान्त प्रतिपादित किया गया है कि  समस्त प्राणिमात्र
के सुख  दुःख का नियन्त्रण  नियति (भाग्य ) के आधीन है  |


Apraarthitam yathaa duhkham tathaa sukhamapi svyam.
Praaninam pratipadyeta  sarvam niyatiyantritam.

Apraarthitam = unsolicited, without any request.   Yathaa = as.
Duhkham = sorrow, grief.    Tathaa = so also.   Sukhamapi =
sukham +api.    Sukham = happiness, pleasure.    Api = even.
Svyam = itself, on its own.     Praaninam = living beings.
Pratipadyeta = perceive this, find out      Sarvam = all, every.
Niyati = destiny, fate.   Niyantritam = governed by, restrained.

i.e.      Just as we are subjected to grief without ever wishing for
such a situation, in the same manner happiness also comes uninvited.
Hence it is perceived that it is the destiny that controls the situations
of grief and happiness among all the living beings.
