Because,
साने वन्दनमालिका स पधुरीकारः सुपायाः सच ब्राह्मयाः पाठविधिः स शुचिमणारोपः सुधादिधीती। कल्याणे कनकच्छटापकदनं पावित्र्यसंपत्तये
शाखाध्यापनमहतोऽपि मदिदं सहखशालाकते ॥ १॥ 1. Samré vandanamālikā sa madhūrîkaraḥ sudbāyāḥ sa ca,
Brāhmayāḥ påthavidhiḥ sa subhrimaguņāropaḥ sudhādidhitan; Kalyane kankacchata-prakaranam pavitrya-sampatteyé, Šāstrādbyāpanamarhato'pi yadidain sallékhaśālākrité.
मातुःपुरो मातुलवर्णनं तत् लकानगर्या लहरीयकं तत् ।
तत्माभृतं लावणमबुराशेः, प्रभोःपुरो यहचसां विलासः ॥ २॥ 2. Matuhpuro natulavarnanam tat, Laikānagarya lahariya
kam tat; Tat prābhritam lāvaņamburāšéḥ prabhoḥ puro yadvacasām vilasah. 2.
1. The teaching of canonical and scientific works even to an Arhat in & writing school is like arranging festoons of welcome ( made of teaves of the mango tree) on the mango tree; like the sweetening of nectars like the teaching of the Method of Teaching to the Goddess of Speech; like the attribu. tiong of the quality of whiteness to the brightness of the rays of the Moon; and it is like a sprinkling of liquid gold on gold with the object of purifying it.
2 The manifestation of the Power of Speech before the Lord is like describing the qualities of a maternal uncle before the mother; like the reproducing of wavy lines caused by surging waves in 7 Lankā, Ceylon, and it is like the offering of a present of salt to the sea.
