意思
Act according to the situation
文化背景
In the 'Dhandho' (business) culture of Gujarat, this proverb is a rule of thumb. It justifies changing a business model overnight if the market shifts. Farmers use this regarding the monsoon. If the rains are late, they change the crop they sow, citing this wisdom. In the UK or USA, Gujarati immigrants often use this to explain how they adapted to Western culture while keeping their roots. It is often used to teach 'Maryada' (social boundaries). You don't speak loudly in front of elders if the mood is serious.
Use it for Social Grace
If you are unsure how to behave in a Gujarati home, just observe the elders and tell them you are trying to be 'Samay Varte Savdhan'. They will be very impressed!
Don't sound too robotic
This is a proverb, so use it sparingly. If you say it every 5 minutes, you'll sound like an old textbook.
