sanskrit

If an intoxicated elephant waves its ears away at the illusionists drinking the juice dripping from its forehead, then the beetles are not harmed at all, they go happily towards the pond full of lotuses. But the beauty of the elephant's forehead diminishes. That means time and earth are infinite, the virtuous get respect somewhere.
