Posted On: 22 OCT 2026 7:49AM by PIB Delhi Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam today, highlighting the importance of remaining humble over limited success and the constant need to learn and grow.
The Prime Minister wrote on X; "खोतो ोतते तावद् यावोदयत े शशी। उदत े त ु सहांशौ न खोतो न चन्द्रमाः।।" A firefly appears to shine only in the absence of the moon. But when the sun rises, neither the firefly's glow nor the moon can be seen. Likewise, the significance of a lesser achievement lasts only until something greater comes along. Therefore, one should remain humble rather than become arrogant over limited success and continue to learn and grow.
खोतो ोतत े तावद् यावोदयत े शशी। उदत े त ु सहांशौ न खोतो न चन्द्रमाः।।
