Anbinum aarvam udaimai; adhuveenum Nannbennum naadaach sirappu. 08/04. Love among neighbors creates kindness, Which, in turn, becomes friendship. *** Rajan: Oh Ram, How nice the world will be When people love each other, she or he? Ram: True, my dear friend, it will be A Heaven on this earth, you'll see. But God created good and bad Like pious cow and poisonous cobra. They co-exist, may be for good, But we take it as bad. What's in God's mind? Who can understand? Snakes eat rats in fields And save our crops. From snakes-poison, They make medicine. So, in the scheme of things, Created by God nothing Is a waste, unlike the views of fools, Not knowing their purposes. *** திருக்குறள் -THIRUKKURAL அதிகாரம் 8 - அன்புடமை CHAPTER 8 - KINDNESS *** 08/05. அன்புற்று அமர்ந்த வழக்கென்ப; வையகத்து இன்புற்றார் எய்தும் சிறப்பு. 08/05. anbutrru amarndha vazhakkenba; vaigaththu Enbutraar eaidhum sirappu. 08/05. The happiness of some people in this world, Is as a result of their love for others. *** Rajan: We see some happy people As a result of their love for others. Ram: It's true, nothing it costs For one to love others. If you sow corn You reap corn. If you fight with others They'll fight with you. If you hate others They'll hate you. A very simple thing it is But people should know this To bring peace in the world That would please God. *** திருக்குறள் -THIRUKKURAL அதிகாரம் 8 - அன்புடமை CHAPTER 8 - KINDNESS *** 08/06. அறத்திற்கே அன்புசார்பு என்ப அறியார் மறத்திற்கும் அஃதே துணை. 08/06. Arrathirrkke anbhusarbu enba arriyaar Marraththirrkum akkdhe thunai. 08/06. An ignorant man only will say love will guide to charity. But love will guide to destroy sin also. *** Rajan: Love and kindness to all Will help one to go to heaven. Ram: Yes Rajan, Love does not mean Physical love of men and women. It's a kind of divine love to lead Oneself towards Godhead. About love the poet indicates It can also destroy sins, Perhaps the divine love can Relive one from committing a sin. Meera loved Krishna And joined Krishna Andal loved Ranganatha And joined Ranganatha. This is not the material love, But the divine love, That goes to please God, And it is always good. ***
