Dear Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

 

Here is what I find in the Sanskrit Study guide by Kochergina:

 

vidyaa dadaati vinayaM vinayaadyaati paatrataam

paatratvaaddhanamaapnoti dhanaaddharmaM tataH sukhaM

 

"Knowledge generates humility, by humility one becomes worthy, being

worthy one earns wealth, with wealth one gains religiosity, and by

religiosity one becomes happy".

 

No source given. It is not there in Sad-ukti-karnamrta or

Subasita-ratna-kosa or Pancatantra. Seems to be a common adage.

 

Your servant apd
