Open in full site →1. संस्कृतम् (देवनागरी)
चिन्तनीया हि विपदां आधावेव प्रतिक्रिया। न कूपखननं युक्तं प्रदीप्ते वह्निना गृहे॥
2. বাংলা / Bengali Script
চিন্তনীযা হি বিপদাং আধাবেব প্রতিক্রিযা। ন কূপখননং যুক্তং প্রদীপ্তে বহ্নিনা গৃহে॥
3. IAST (Transliteration)
cintanīyā hi vipadāṃ ādhāveva pratikriyā | na kūpakhananaṃ yuktaṃ pradīpte vahninā gṛhe ||
4. English Meaning / आङ्ग्लार्थः
One should think about the remedy for a disaster right from its very beginning (or even before it strikes). It is not appropriate to start digging a well when the house is already on fire.
5. বাংলা অর্থ / Bengali Meaning
বিপদের প্রতিকার আগে থেকেই ভেবে রাখা উচিত। ঘর যখন দাউ দাউ করে জ্বলছে, তখন কুয়ো খনন করা বুদ্ধিমত্তার পরিচয় নয়। (অর্থাৎ ধৈর্যের সাথে আগে থেকেই প্রস্তুতি নিতে হয়)।
6. हिन्दी अर्थ / Hindi Meaning
विपत्ति आने से पहले ही उसके बचाव का उपाय सोच लेना चाहिए। जब घर में आग लग जाए, तब कुआँ खोदना सही नहीं है।
7. संस्कृतभावार्थः
पूर्वमेव सङ्कटस्य विचारः करणीयः। असावधानता विनाशस्य कारणं भवति।
8. अन्वयः (Compound Analysis)
चिन्तनीया हि विपदां आधावेव प्रतिक्रिया। न कूपखननं युक्तं प्रदीप्ते वह्निना गृहे।
