Today's Subhashita,

असत्या  च हता  वाणी  तथा  पैशुन्यवादिनी |
संदिग्धोSपि हतो मन्त्रो व्ययचित्त्तो हतो तपः ||       - महासुभषित संग्रह (36887)

अर्थ -      झूठ  बोलने वाले व्यक्ति   की वाणी (विचार व्यक्त करने की शक्ति और उसकी
प्रामाणिकता ) नष्ट  हो जाती है तथा वह दुष्टता की  ओर प्रेरित हो जाता है |   उसकी कही
हुई बातों पर लोग संदेह्  करते हैं  तथा उसकी अस्थिर मनोवृत्ति  तथा अनैतिक आचरण  के
कारण वह् व्यक्ति तपभृष्ट भी हो जाता है |

Asatyaa cha hataa vaanee tathaa paishunyavaadinee.
Samdigdhopi hato mantrah vyayachitto hato tapah.

Asatyaa = telling a lie.     Cha = and.     Hataa = destroyed, become worthless.
Vaanee =  speech, language.     Tathaa = thus, so also.   Paishunya = wickedness.
Vaadini = causing.     Samdigdhopi =   even doubtful.        Mantro = speech,
advice.      Vyayachitto = dissolute way of mind. with lax  morals       Tapah =
religious austerity.

i.e.         The authenticity of the words spoken by a person  always telling lies is lost and
also results in his becoming a wicked person.  People always doubt the statements made
by him and he also loses religious austerity due to his dissolute way of mind and lax
morals,
