Today's Subhashita

अनभ्यासेन  विद्यायां असंसर्गेण धीमतां |
अनिग्रहेण चाक्षाणां जायते व्यसनं नृणां   ||

अर्थ -      व्यक्तियों के द्वारा नियमित अभ्यास न करने से विभिन्न विद्याओं  के उपयोग् करने की क्षमता में ह्रास ,  विद्वज्जनो से निरन्तर संपर्क न रखने से विवेकहीनता , अधैर्य तथा अनुशासित न होने से जुआ खेलने पर   हानि, ये सभी दुष्परिणाम  भुगतने पडते हैं |

(एक अन्य सुभाषित मे भी कहा गया है कि - 'अनभ्यासे विषं शास्त्रं' -  अर्थात निरन्तर अभ्यास न करने से शास्त्र विष के समान हो जाता है |)

Anabhyaase = for want of practice or skill.     Vidyaayaam = different fields knowledge.
Asansargena = not maintaining contact, disassociation with.    Dheemataam = intelligence, wisdom.
Anigrahena =  being unrestrained.   Chaakshanam = cha +akshanam.     Cha = and.    Akshanam =
the game of dice.      Jaayate =becomes, happens.     Vyasanam = bad habits, misfortune , evil results.  Nrunaam = people..

i.e.           Absence of regular practice and recapitulation results in loss of  command over various disciplines of learning ,  not being in the company of noble persons results in loss of wisdom, unrestrained behaviour  and impatience results in losing a game of dice by the people.

(There is another subhashita on this theme which says -"anabhyase visham shaastram' i.e. if not regularly practised the 'Shastra' (a discipline of learning say  Music, Medicine etc.) become like a poison.)
