పైత్యరోగికి పంచదార చేదు

This proverb highlights three conditions that prevent a person from sleeping: a Yogi (spiritual person) stays awake for meditation or divine connection; a Rogi (sick person) cannot sleep due to physical pain or discomfort; and a Bhogi (pleasure-seeker) stays awake to indulge in sensory or material enjoyments. It is used to describe situations where different motivations or conditions lead to the same outcome of sleeplessness.

This proverb describes a situation where basic necessities are lacking, yet there are demands or expectations for luxuries. It is used to mock people who cannot afford the bare minimum but aspire for high-end comforts, or to highlight extreme irony in one's financial or social state.

This proverb is used to point out that one should be given what is appropriate for their role or situation rather than unnecessary luxuries. A hard-working ox needs fodder and strength, not delicacies. It is often applied to people who demand sophisticated or fancy things that do not suit their current needs or capacity.

This proverb highlights that three types of people find it hard to sleep, albeit for different reasons: the 'Yogi' (ascetic) is awake in meditation or spiritual pursuit, the 'Bhogi' (pleasure-seeker) is awake indulging in luxuries or out of fear of losing them, and the 'Rogi' (sick person) is awake due to physical pain or discomfort.

This expression is used to describe a situation where a person's judgment or perception is clouded by their current negative state or circumstances. Just as a physical illness makes sweet things taste bitter, a person in a bad mood, bias, or difficult situation may find fault or negativity in things that are otherwise good, pleasant, or beneficial.

This expression is used to describe a situation where two things or people blend together perfectly, harmoniously, or indistinguishably. It is often used to describe a great friendship, a perfect match, or a seamless integration of something.

This expression is used to describe how people who are suffering or in a weak state tend to be irritable, impatient, or easily annoyed. It serves as a reminder to be patient and empathetic with those who are unwell, as their physical discomfort often manifests as bad temper.

This expression is used to describe a situation where someone is so set on a destructive path or a problem is so far gone that no amount of advice, help, or remedy can save them. It implies that when failure or ruin is inevitable, any corrective efforts are futile.

This proverb describes how both extreme suffering and extreme pleasure can lead to sleeplessness. A sick person (rogi) is kept awake by physical pain or discomfort, while a person indulging in luxuries and worldly pleasures (bhogi) is often too excited, distracted, or busy with enjoyment to find rest.

This proverb is used to describe someone who makes excuses to avoid work or pretends to have health issues, but when it comes to resting or enjoying comforts (like sleeping under a warm blanket), they suddenly have no ailments. It highlights hypocrisy or laziness.
