Niti Shatkam • Chapter 1 • Shloka 20
विद्या नाम नरस्य रूपमधिकं प्रच्छन्नगुप्तं धनं
विद्या भोगकारी यशःसुखकारी विद्या गुरूणां गुरुः ।
विद्या बन्धुजनो विदेशगमने विद्या परा देवता
विद्या राजसु पूजिता न तु धनं विद्याविहीनः पशुः ।।
Knowledge is the true form and hidden wealth of man; Knowledge is going to give enjoyment, happiness and fame to man; Knowledge is the teacher of the gurus, in foreign countries only knowledge works as a friend, knowledge is the supreme god, only knowledge is respected in kings, not wealth. One who does not have knowledge is like an animal.
