This maxim is based on the phenomenon of some water drops on a lotus-leaf. These water-drops do not last for a long time on the lotus leaf. They suggest the following points:(1) All creation is transitory.
(2) The company of the great, though temporary, is always benevolent. The water-drops on the lotus leaf, though temporary, shine like pearls so long as they remain on the leaf.
(3) All worldly contacts are momentary. Similarly a man of well balanced intellect or a man of mental and physical control lives in the world with complete detachment.
