🇮🇳 FACTS ABOUT INDIA 🇮🇳
=======================
📜 Which ancient stone dam across the Kaveri, built by the Chola king Karikala, is still in use today?
Kallanai (the Grand Anicut)
Built around the 2nd century CE near Tiruchirappalli in Tamil Nadu, Kallanai is regarded as one of the oldest water-regulating structures in the world still in use. Made of unhewn stones laid across the river bed, it diverts Kaveri water into canals that irrigate the fertile Kaveri delta. In the 19th century, British engineer Sir Arthur Cotton studied and strengthened it, and it inspired his own anicut designs.
🛕 SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE
🕉️ “The divine is not far away in the skies; it lives in every honest word we speak and every kind deed we do.”
🧘 “A calm mind is like a still lake — only when the ripples settle can you see the moon clearly.”
🌳 “Walk gently on the earth; every leaf, river and bird is a quiet teacher of patience and giving.”
LEARN SANSKRIT
न चोरहार्यं न च राजहार्यं न भ्रातृभाज्यं न च भारकारि।
व्यये कृते वर्धत एव नित्यं विद्याधनं सर्वधनप्रधानम्॥
Na chorahāryam na cha rājahāryam na bhrātṛbhājyam na cha bhārakāri, vyaye kṛte vardhata eva nityam vidyādhanam sarvadhanapradhānam 🙏
Meaning: It cannot be stolen by thieves, nor taken away by kings, nor divided among brothers, nor is it a burden to carry; it always grows when it is spent — the wealth of knowledge is the greatest of all wealth. (Subhashitam)
अर्थ: विद्या रूपी धन को न चोर चुरा सकता है, न राजा छीन सकता है, न भाइयों में इसका बँटवारा होता है और न ही यह बोझ बनता है; खर्च करने पर यह सदा बढ़ता ही है — विद्या रूपी धन सभी धनों में श्रेष्ठ है।
