यस्य नास्ति स्वयं प्रज्ञा

यस्य नास्ति स्वयं प्रज्ञा शास्त्रं तस्य करोति किम्।
लोचनाभ्यां विहीनस्य दर्पणः किं करिष्यति॥
yasya nāsti svayaṁ prajñā śāstraṁ tasya karoti kim|
locanābhyāṁ vihīnasya darpaṇaḥ kiṁ kariṣyati||

"For one who has no knowledge of his own, what is the use of all scriptures.
[Just as] for the one who has no eyes, the mirror is of no use"
