Today's Subhashita.

अल्पानामपि वस्तूनाम्  संहतिः कार्यसाधिका  |
तृणैर्गुणत्वमापन्नैः  बध्नन्ते   मत्तदन्तिनः    ||

अर्थ -     अत्यन्त साधारण वस्तुएं भी एक साथ एकत्रित हो कर
कठिन कार्यों को संपन्न करने मे सक्षम हो  जाती हैं उदाहरणार्थ
घास के पतले तिनके जब एकत्रित हो कर (एक मजबूत रस्सी के
रूप मे परिवर्तित हो कर ) इतने गुणवान (मजबूत) हो जाते  हैं कि
वे एक मदमस्त हाथी को भी बांध कर बश में कर सकते  हैं |

Alpaanaamapi vastoonaam smhatih kaaryasaadhikaa.
trunairgunatvamaapannaih badhyante mattadantinah.

Alpaanaamapi = alpannam + api.     Alpaanaam = small, trifling.
Api = even,    Vastoonaam - things.     Smhatih = firm union or
alliance,  compactness.    Kaaryasaadhikaa = accomplishing any
objective.      Trunairgunatamaapannaih = trunaih +gunatva+
aapannaih.     Trunaih = blades of grass.    Gunatva =excellence.
Aapannaih =  acquiring.     Badhnanante = fasten, tie up.
Mattadantinah = furious elephants

i.e.     Even trifling things when they are united in a compact form
acquire excellence and are able to perform difficult tasks, e.g. thin
and brittle blades of grass when compacted to form a rope , become
so strong that they are capable of tying up and controlling even a
furious rogue elephant.
