On Love or Affection
– Kural 72
“Anbilar
ellaam Thamakkuriyar Anbudaiyaar
Enbum
Uriyar pirarkku”.
Those without affection in their hearts will
keep all they have for themselves; the tenderhearted will even give away their
bones.
Though in its immediate application, by virtue
of its position in this chapter, this Kural would refer to the self-effacing
love of a member of the family, its real meaning would cover all the
self-sacrificing great men of the world. The idea is that such great men belong
to mankind even to the very last drop of their blood.
Be Blissful
