This proverb highlights the inevitability of certain outcomes.

This proverb highlights the subjectivity of taste and authority. It means that power and personal affection define value.

This expression is used to describe a situation where someone has already lost their wealth, status, or most important possessions.

This proverb highlights the insatiable nature of three things: illnesses that can keep occurring, melodies or attachments (raga) that can be endless, and the pursuit of luxury or pleasure (bhoga) which never feels sufficient. It is used to suggest that one should practice moderation and detachment because these three aspects of life have no natural stopping point.

This proverb is used to describe a situation where, despite a massive failure or the loss of everything significant, something trivial, minor, or unnecessary remains intact. It highlights misplaced priorities or the irony of small things surviving when the foundations are gone.
