Verses of Vemana – 58
koti danamichi kopambu ponducho
batiseya ratani brajalu mechi
satvika gunamula sajjanudagunaya
viswadhabhirama vinura vema
Commentary: A man is known by what he is and not just by what he gives. He may give ten millions in charity but if he does not have charity in his heart and is irascible he will not be respected. That man is esteemed who is satvic: pure, whose thoughts, words and deeds synchronize, who can cause only good to the world.
