after facing difficuties even balan or bitter would taste sweet

 



व्यसनं प्राप्य यो मोहात्केवलं परिवेदयेत्।
व्यसनं वर्धयत्येव तस्यान्तं नाधिगच्छति॥
इन्दिश्चे स्प्रुचे २९१३ पञ्चतन्त्रे
व्यसनानन्तरं सौख्यं स्वल्पमप्यधिकं भवेत्।
कषायरसमास्वाद्य स्वाद्वतीवाम्बु विन्द्ते॥
इन्दिस्चे स्प्रूचे २९१४ दृष्टान्तकलिकाशतके
व्यसनेष्वेव सर्वेषु यस्य बुद्धिर्न हीयते।
स तेषां परमभ्येति तत्प्रभावादसंशयम्॥
इन्दिस्चे स्प्रूचे २९१६ पञ्चतन्त्रे

vyasanaṁ prāpya yo mohātkevalaṁ parivedayet|
vyasanaṁ vardhayatyeva tasyāntaṁ nādhigacchati||
indiśce spruce 2913 pañcatantre
vyasanānantaraṁ saukhyaṁ svalpamapyadhikaṁ bhavet|
kaṣāyarasamāsvādya svādvatīvāmbu vindte||
indisce sprūce 2914 dṛṣṭāntakalikāśatake
vyasaneṣveva sarveṣu yasya buddhirna hīyate|
sa teṣāṁ paramabhyeti tatprabhāvādasaṁśayam||
indisce sprūce 2916 pañcatantre

If a person, when he faces a difficult situation, or when he falls to bad company and unsavoury habits, he would simply wail, complain and move around in desperation without trying to salvage the situation to the extent possible. Then one be sure that, the impact of the bad situation would become more adverse and there would be no end in sight for such misery.

When a person who landed up in a bad situation has managed to turn round the corner and is feeling fairly happy and secure, even small and inconsequent happiness would make him feel as if he is in the seventh heaven. This behaviour similar to the conduct of a person, who suffered misery when he tasted a very bitter potion like Kashayam, and then felt even bland, plain water is very sweet for his palate.

If a person does not forsake his diligence and discretion and uses his intellectual faculties fully while confronting a situation, which caused him a lot of misery, then, sure, he will come out of the bad situation eventually, through the right application of such diligent mind and by virtue of such persistent attitude.
