બેઠક Bethak

ધંધી પાંચમે છઠે તેલ, એકાદશીએ નાગરવેલ.

dhaṁdhī pāṁcamē chaṭhē tēla, ēkādaśīē nāgaravēla.

What it means
Left blank on purpose. The scan is damaged here and the words are not certain enough to translate — English written over a guess would hide the guess rather than fix it. The Gujarati above is what could be read.

Also said as

  • દ્વાદશીએ ઝાલર ખાય તે નિશ્ચે નરકે જાય.
  • દમડીકી રાઈ, સાસુવહુકી લડાઇ,
  • આધી રોટી સુરાઇ, ખૂણે બેઠકર ખાઇ,
  • સાસુ મારવા ધાઇ, વરે કુવામાં ગીરાઇ.

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
