    What do you mean by Hindu Proverbs?

    Something like" Sare tirth bar bar, Gangasagar Ek bar"

    Thank you Hari for the reply. What I meant by Hindu proverbs was basically Indian proverbs with Hindu civilizational wisdom soaked into it. I think that proverbs are condensed wisdom of our ancestors and that was what I wanted to tap into. 

    The example you gave is an excellent example. Let me know if you can refer me to a source. 

    Regards

      I am not aware of if any such book(s) exist but there should be one. Our scriptures are full of Slokas and Mantras and a  mantra or part of Sloka can be a proverb such as सत्यवान जयेते is proverb, so is भिन्नं मुण्डे भिन्नं मतें means As many heads as many opinion ....
