యథార్థమునకు ఏడు చుట్లు అక్కర లేదు

This proverb is used to describe someone who talks incessantly without any logic, substance, or purpose. It compares such senseless chatter to a blind eye, emphasizing that just as a blind eye cannot perform its function of seeing, 'Asodi' (nonsense or idle gossip) serves no functional purpose in communication.

This proverb is used to describe speech or actions that are completely nonsensical or useless. Just as it is impossible for a blind eye to see, it implies that certain talk (historically referring to the loud, rhythmic, but sometimes unintelligible chanting of the Asadi folk performers) lacks substance or logic. It is used to dismiss someone's words as noise without value.

This proverb plays on the word 'Artha', which means both 'meaning' and 'wealth'.

A man without money is like a ship without sails. (Dutch.)*

This expression is used to describe a situation where there is no argument, alternative, or response possible against a certain fact or a person's authority.

This proverb emphasizes practicality and utility in relationships. It suggests that a relative who fails to help during a time of need is of no value, just as a deity who does not answer prayers or provide help is considered redundant.

This proverb is used to describe someone who is consistently lazy, indifferent, or irresponsible. It refers to a person who didn't take the effort to wear/tie a garment properly in the past and doesn't bother about it being torn or ruined in the present.

Said by a poor fellow who had never had the pleasure of putting on a good cloth or the annoyance of tearing it.

A thing sought for to come to hand without trouble.

This proverb is used to describe a situation where one trip or action serves two purposes: a spiritual or selfless duty and a personal or selfish gain.
