🎯 Today’s Wisdom 👉
🌹
“Even a single, strong, and well-rooted tree can be felled in an instant by the wind. On the other hand, a group of trees standing together, well-rooted, and united, can withstand even the strongest winds, supporting each other.”
- Mahabharata, Udyoga Parva 36-62/63
In essence, this teaches us the strength of unity and cooperation, emphasizing that together, we can overcome challenges that may seem insurmountable alone. 🌹
