पुस्तकप्रत्ययाधीतं नाधीतं गुरुसन्निधौ । सभामध्ये न शोभन्ते जारगर्भा इव स्त्रियः ॥

The scholar who has acquired knowledge by studying innumerable books without the blessings of a bonafide spiritual master does not shine in an assembly of truly learned men just as an illegitimate child is not honoured in society.
