Chanakya Neeti 5
यथा चतुर्भिः कनकं परीक्ष्यते निघर्षणच्छेदनतापताडनैः। तथा चतुर्भिः पुरुषः परीक्ष्यते त्यागेन शीलेन गुणेन कर्मणा॥
yathā caturbhiḥ kanakaṃ parīkṣyate nigharṣaṇacchedanatāpatāḍanaiḥ| tathā caturbhiḥ puruṣaḥ parīkṣyate tyāgena śīlena guṇena karmaṇā||
जिस तरह सोने की परख घिसने से, तोडने से, गरम करने से और पिटने से होती है, वैसे हि मनष्य की परख विद्या, शील, गुण और कर्म से होती है।
Hindi Translation
Just as gold is tested through rubbing, cutting, heating and beating; a man is examined on four (grounds) - liberality, character, efficacy (and) action.
