If A Person Learns Knowledge For Intelligence Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

If A Person Learns Knowledge For Intelligence



His gross ignorance becomes lesser and lesser;

While his ignorance becomes lesser and lesser,
He, leaving his vices, knows the nature of this world;

While he knows the nature of this world,
He leads into the true virtuous life with healthy mind;

By his virtuous deed, he becomes glorious
And establishes popularity in this earthly world;

Enters into world of after life,
Into the House of Heaven!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Hi,
This poem 'If a person learns knowledge for intelligence..! ' is a translation of a poem from Tamil literature 'NaanmaNikkatikai'

கற்ப, கழி மடம் அஃகும்; மடம் அஃக,
புற்கம் தீர்ந்து, இவ் உலகில் கோள் உணரும்; கோள் உணர்ந்தால்,
தத்துவம் ஆன நெறி படரும்; அந் நெறியே
இப்பால் உலகத்து இசை நிறீஇ, உப்பால்
உயர்ந்த உலகம் புகும்.28 நான்மணிக்கடிகை

We all have to do good in this world. Kindness is better than bitterness.
