Haasige Iddashtu Kaalu Chaachu

ಹಾಸಿಗೆ ಇದ್ದಷ್ಟು ಕಾಲು ಚಾಚು

Literal Meaning - "Stretch your legs only as much as the cot allows you to".

This Gaade is used to highlight the importance of moderation in one's life style. If one stretches his or her legs beyond the cot, then discomfort is guaranteed. Similarly, one should spend money only within one's capabilities. The same applies to indulgence in any other matter. We should stick to our limits is the moral of this Gaade.
