A Little Learning is a Dangerous Thing.
We have heard of 'quacks' in the villages who try to cure serious diseases by their so-called magical remedies. This is an example of a little learning being a dangerous thing. Finally when the patient dies they shift the blame to some supernatural powers and wash their hands of the tragedy.
Sometimes children try to imitate dangerous scenes from films, little realising the harm that they can cause to themselves or others. Likewise, learning Yoga from someone who is not an expert in the art could be dangerous. Some people try to repair domestic appliances on their own thinking they can do the job themselves. Lacking sufficient knowledge, they only spoil the appliance. They would do well to call a technician to do the job.
Listening to the advice of someone who is less educated than you can result in your making wrong choices in life. Remember Lord Buddha's teaching: Travel not with a fool. He further goes on to say that if the people you are travelling with are less clever than you or equal in cleverness to you, it is better to travel alone. In other words, it is better to have no friends than to have one who has little knowledge.
A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED
A Little Learning is a Dangerous Thing.
A Rolling stone Gathers no Moss.
An Apple a day keeps the Doctor away
Birds of a feather flock together.
Cleanliness is next to Godliness
Cut your Coat According to Your Cloth
Empty vessels make the most sound
Example is Better Than Precept OR Practice What You Preach OR Actions Speak Louder Than Words
Experience is the best teacher
God Helps those who Help Themselves
God made the country and Man Made the Town.
Impossible is a word in the Dictionary of Fools.
Industry is the mother of prosperity
Is having a Hobby / Leisure Time activity helpful?
Is Plastic Bad for the Environment?
Neither a Borrower nor a Lender be
Nothing succeeds Like Success.
One Good Turn Deserves Another
Perseverance is the key to success
Pollution: Earth’s enemy number one.
Prevention is Better than Cure.
Procrastination is the thief of time.
Science and Modern inventions: A Blessing or a curse?
Service to Man is Service to God.
Slow and Steady wins the race.
Speech is silver, Silence is Golden.
Strike While the Iron is Hot Or Make hay while the sun shines
The Hand that rocks the cradle Rules the world
The world has enough for every man's need, But not for every man's greed.
Things of Beauty is a joy forever.
To err is human, To forgive Divine.
We are a part of Nature, Not Apart from Nature.
