Today's Subhashita.

विद्या  मित्रं  प्रवासेषु  भार्या  मित्रं  गृहेषु  च |
व्याधिस्तस्यौषधं मित्रं धर्मो मित्रं मृतस्य च ||

अर्थ -        परदेश में निवास के समय किसी व्यक्ति द्वारा अर्जित
विद्द्या और कौशल उसके मित्र के समान सहायक होते हैं और वैसे
ही  गृहस्थ जीवन में उसकी पत्नी एक  मित्र के समान होती है |
बीमारी की अवस्था में औषधि एक मित्र के समान होती है  तथा
मृत्योपरान्त  जीवनकाल  में किया हुआ  धार्मिक आचरण ही एक
मित्र के समान (अगले जन्म  में )सहायक होता है |

Vidyaa mitram pravaashu bhaaryaa mitram gruheshu cha.
Vyadhistasyaushadham mitram  dharmo mitram mrutasya cha.

Vidyaa = knowledge and learning.           Mitram = a friend.
Pravaseshu = during stay in a foreign land away from home.
Bhaaryaa =  wife.     Greshu = at one;s home.     Cha = and.
Vyadhistasyaushadham =  vyaadhih + tasya+ aushadham.+mitram.
Vyaadhi = a disease.    Tasya = its.     Aushadham = medicines.
Dharmo = Religious austerity.    Mrutasya = a dead person's.

i.e.       During stay in an unknown and foreign country, the
knowledge and learning acquired by a person helps him as a
friend and similarly his wife acts as a close friend at his home.
During the course of illness medicine acts as a friend and
religious austerity practised by a person serves him as a friend
after his death (in his next birth) .
