O Goddess Saraswati (Bharati), this treasure chest of yours is truly unique and unprecedented! When it is spent (shared with others), it constantly increases, but when it is hoarded (kept to oneself), it is destroyed.
5. বাংলা অর্থ / Bengali Meaning
হে দেবী সরস্বতী (ভারতী), আপনার এই বিদ্যারূপী ভাণ্ডারটি বড়ই অদ্ভুত বা অপূর্ব! এই ধন ব্যয় করলে (অর্থাৎ অন্যকে শেখালে) তা কেবল বৃদ্ধিই পায়, কিন্তু সঞ্চয় করে রাখলে (কাউকে না দিলে) তা ক্ষয়প্রাপ্ত হয় বা নষ্ট হয়ে যায়।
6. हिन्दी अर्थ / Hindi Meaning
हे देवी सरस्वती (भारती)! आपका यह विद्या रूपी खजाना सचमुच बहुत अनोखा (अपूर्व) है। इसे खर्च करने (दूसरों को बाँटने) से यह बढ़ता है, परन्तु इसे इकट्ठा करके रखने (न बाँटने) से यह नष्ट हो जाता है।
