Maataladavacchu Manasu Telapagaledu
Telupavachu dannu Teliya ledu
SuriyaBatta vacchu Soorudu Kaledu
Viswadha Abhirama Vinura Vema.
Telugu Version:
మాటలాడవచ్చు మనసు తెలపగలేడు ,
తెలుపవచ్చు దన్ను తెలియ లేడు .
సూర్య బట్ట వచ్చు సూరీడు కాలేడు
విశ్వదాభిరామ వినురవేమ
Meaning: A Talkative Person without the clarity of thought may speak well but can't communicate his intentions clearly. He may advise others superficially about the gospels yet can never control his mind . All men who hold swords can't become brave warriors, Likewise, all People who talk Gospels and advise others to correct themselves need not have to follow what they say.
Story : Drona Charya being a teacher advised many students to develop good qualities like not to be judgemental about anyone and treat all students alike but in practice, he didn't; Ex : He was biased towards Arjuna, As he never wanted anyone to be more dexterous than Arjuna, he refused to teach archery to Ekalavya with a pretext that Ekalavya wasn't a Kshatriya and thus he sent a wrong signal as a teacher failing to understand that the true purpose of Education is equity despite the era one lives in!.he also ruthlessly demanded Ekalavya's thumb as a Guru Dakshina thus he elevated Arjuna to be the greatest archer in the World.
This story tells that one shouldn't be biased and a Guru requires transparency and good intention to be called as Guru. This quality of Drona Charya made him remain as simple Guru to impart skills to his students as he forgot the true meaning of Acharya who had to focus on Spiritual growth of students and accept everyone alike. Hence people who simply impart skills will not get respect but a true teacher is to accept all follow equity.
