Friendship

 Friendship

During the recent visit of President Trump to Ahmedabad, H’ble PM of India in his concluding remarks described the strong bonding of friendship between India and America by referring a Sanskrit Subhashit तन्मित्रं यत्र विश्वास: He remarked, whether two people or two countries are concerned, it’s biggest basis is trust. Trust on each other. तन्मित्रं यत्र विश्वास: friendship is where trust is unshakable.

Here is the full Subhashit telling the role of a son, a father, a friend and a spouse. 

ते पुत्रा ये पितुर्भक्ताः सः पिता यस्तु पोषकः।

तन्मित्रं यत्र विश्वासः सा भार्या या निवृतिः ॥

पुत्र वही है, जो पिता का भक्त है । पिता वही है,जो पोषक है, मित्र वही है, जो विश्वासपात्र हो । पत्नी वही है, जो हृदय को आनन्दित करे ।

Sanskrit Subhashits are wisdom lines of India that light the better way of life.
