Sanskrit Wisdom - 87

naasti vidyaa samam chakshu naasti satya samam tapah |
naasti raaga samam duhkham naasti tyaaga samam sukham ||

naaist ivaVa samaM caxaU naaist sa%ya samaM tp: a
naaist raga samaM du:Kma\ naaist %yaaga samaM sauKma\ aa

Explanation
There is no sight better than knowledge (by knowledge one can see what cannot be seen by a naked eye). Knowledge gives the vision to see beyond some obvious things.
There is no better ardor than truth (satya). There is no greater sorrow than desire, and there is no higher happiness than renunciation (tyaga).
