Today's Subhashita.

वृथा वृष्टिः समुद्रेषु वृथा तृप्तेषु भोजनात्  |
वृथा दानं  धनाढ्येशु वृथा  दीपो दिवापि च ||

अर्थ -    समुद्र के ऊपर बरसात होना व्यर्थ होता है और उसी प्रकार एक
भरपेट भोजन किये हुए व्यक्ति को पुनः भोजन देना व्यर्थ है | एक धनवान्
व्यक्ति को दान देना भी व्यर्थ है तथा दिन के समय दीपक जलाना भी
व्यर्थ होता है |

Vruthaa vrushtih samudreshu  vruthaa trupteshu  bhojaanaat |
Vruthaa daanam  dhanaDheyeshu vruthaa deepo  divaapi cha,

Vruthaa = futile, useless    Vrushtih = rainfall.    Samudreshu =
over the Ocean.    Trupteshu =  a satiated person.     Bhojanam =
food.      Daanam = donation, charity.    DhanaaDheysu =
a wealthy person.   Deepo = a lighted lamp.   Divaapi = diva +api
Diva = day time.    Api = even.     Cha = and..

i.e.       Rainfall over the Ocean is useless and so also offering food
to a satiated person.   Similarly giving donation to a wealthy person
and lighting a lamp during day time is also of no use.
