કર્મની કહાણી, અર્ધું તેલ ને અર્ધું પાણી.

karmanī kahāṇī, ardhuṁ tēla nē ardhuṁ pāṇī.

Literally
The story of karma, half oil and half water.
What it means
Life is a mixture of different, often conflicting, elements.

Also said as

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