Guroo


ਗੁਰੂ ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਟਪਣੇ , ਚੇਲੇ ਜਾਣ ਛੜੱਪ
Guroo (teacher) jinnaha (whose) tapnnai (leap) chalai (followers) jann chharapp
(take very high jump). The teacher leaps a little, but his/her follower leap.

It means students of clever teachers are cleverer than their teachers – this proverb can be used in both negative and positive sense; positively in the way that children can surpass parents, and negatively in the way some assume they have learned all there is to learn.
