विद्या शुभकरी किन्तु स्वल्पा विद्या भयङ्करी

विद्यया पूज्यते लोके विद्यया सुखमश्नुते।

विद्या शुभकरी किन्तु स्वल्पा विद्या भयङ्करी॥

vidyayā pūjyate loke vidyayā sukhamaśnute|

vidyā śubhakarī kintu svalpā vidyā bhayaṅkarī||

A person who is having great knowledge, who is well educated is respected or even worshipped by all people around.

With good education and knowledge a person would acquire and enjoy all comforts and happiness

Education is the cause and source for the overall well being and wholesome existence of any person who is fortunate to have the benefits of acquisition of such knowledge.

However, improper, inadequate, half-baked knowledge can be the eternal source of fear, strife and other difficulties.

Half backed knowledge is indeed a great threat to one and all.
