Kural Number: 0151 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 1 - அறத்துப்பால்; இயல்: 02 - இல்லறவியல்; அதிகாரம்: 016 - பொறையுடைமை; குறள் எண்: 0151}

{Division: 1 - Ethics ; Section: 02 - Family Ethics; Chapter: 016 - Possession of Forbearance; Kural Number: 0151}

அகழ்வாரைத் தாங்கும் நிலம்போலத் தம்மை
இகழ்வார்ப் பொறுத்தல் தலை

Tolerate the contempts of others as
the earth bear excavate

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: As the earth bear the people who excavate; it is characteristic to forgive the people who contempt us through devil words.

(Likewise...)

As the parents bless the children who abandon them; it is unique to embrace the people who spoil our reputation by gossips.
