Shloka of the day Wednesday, 28 January 2026

One Sanskrit verse a day from the Bhagavad Gita, the Upanishads, the Vedas, subhashitas and well-known stotras, with transliteration and meaning. 132 verses in rotation.

Mundaka Upanishad 3.1.6

सत्यमेव जयते नानृतं सत्येन पन्था विततो देवयानः ।satyameva jayate nānṛtaṃ satyena panthā vitato devayānaḥ |

येनाक्रमन्त्यृषयो ह्याप्तकामा यत्र तत् सत्यस्य परमं निधानम् ॥yenākramantyṛṣayo hyāptakāmā yatra tat satyasya paramaṃ nidhānam ||

Meaning

Truth alone triumphs, not falsehood. By truth is laid the divine path on which sages, their desires fulfilled, travel to the supreme abode of truth.

सत्य की ही विजय होती है, असत्य की नहीं। सत्य से ही वह देवयान मार्ग बना है जिस पर पूर्णकाम ऋषि सत्य के परम धाम तक जाते हैं।

The meaning is our own short paraphrase, not a word-for-word translation.
