Today's Subhashita.

अभिवादनशीलस्य  नित्यं  वृद्धोपसेविनः |
चत्वारि तस्य वर्धन्ते आयुः प्रज्ञा यशो बलं ||

अर्थ -    जो व्यक्ति सदैव  अपने से वरिष्ठ जनों  का अभिवादन (आदर)
करता है और वृद्ध जनों की सेवा में तत्पर रहता है, उसकी आयु ,बुद्धिमत्ता,
यश और बल इन चारों में  निश्चय ही वृद्धि  होती है |

Abhivaadanasheelasya nityam vruddhopasevinah.
Chatvaari trasya vardhante aayuh pragyaa yasho balam.

Abhivaadansheelasya = a person who shows respect to  his elders
by saluting them.     Nityam = always, daily.   Vruddhaopisevinah =
Vruddha  + upasevinah.     Vruddha = aged persons.  Upasevinah =
devoted to.      Chatvaari = four.    Tasya = his.   Vardhante = grow,
increase.     Ayuh = life span.   Pragyaa = visdom.    Yasho = fame.
Balam = strength, power.

i.e.     Those persons who  give due respect to their elders by saluting
them and always help and nurse the aged persons,  their is growth in
four aspects of their life namely life span, wisdom, fame  and strength.
