5 qualities of an ideal student

1. kak chesta ( try again & again until goal 

is achieved, like a crow)

2. bako dhyanam ( study with full

concentration, like a crane)

3. swan nidra( sleep like a dog )- so a student is not  

lazy and he should be always active.

4. alpahari (should eat less ) - eat less means an average

diet/meal not so full that makes you feel sleepy & lazy.

5. greh tyagi, ( to be away from home) - like in 

hostel/pg/library etc. A student is not supposed to have the luxurious 

life of home.

features of an ideal student )

Reference- based on a very famous Sanskrit slok

काक चेष्टा, बको ध्यानं,
स्वान निद्रा तथैव च
स्वल्पहारी, गृहत्यागी

विद्यार्थी पंच लक्षणं।

Kaak cheshta bako dhyanam.:
Swan nindra tathaiwa cha
swalpahari, grihtyaagi,
vidyarthi panch lakshnam.
