subhashita:na_ambhobhi

न अम्भोधिः अर्थिताम् एति

Subhashita

नाम्भोधिरर्थितामेति सदाम्भोभिश्च पूर्यते।
आत्मा तु पात्रतां नेयः पात्रमायान्ति संपदः॥

IAST transliteration

nāmbhodhirarthitāmeti sadāmbhobhiśca pūryate।
ātmā tu pātratāṃ neyaḥ pātramāyānti saṃpadaḥ॥

English meaning

Ocean never begs, yet it is always full of water. If one makes oneself worthy, then considering him as a proper recipient, wealth itself favours him although he may not desire it.
