SRI AUROBINDO

Translations

from Sanskrit and Other Languages

Kalidasa

Bhartrihari. The Century of Life

On Fools and Folly

Folly’s Wisdom

One cloak on ignorance absolutely fits;

Justly if worn, some grace is even lent;

Silence in sessions of the learned sits

On the fool’s brow like a bright ornament.
