Kural Number: 0152 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 1 - அறத்துப்பால்; இயல்: 02 - இல்லறவியல்; அதிகாரம்: 016 - பொறையுடைமை; குறள் எண்: 0152}

{Division: 1 - Ethics ; Section: 02 - Family Ethics; Chapter: 016 - Possession of Forbearance; Kural Number: 0152}

பொறுத்தல் இறப்பினை என்றும் அதனை
மறத்தல் அதனினும் நன்று

Forbearing the harm is always good;
Forgetting it is even better

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: It is always good to forbear the deadly harm; it is even better to forget that harm itself.

(Likewise...)

It is always great to restrain the excessive anger; it is even greater to forget the root of that anger itself.
