Kural Number: 0420 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 2 - பொருட்பால்; இயல்: 05 - அரசியல்; அதிகாரம்: 042 - கேள்வி; குறள் எண்: 0420}

{Division: 2 - Wealth; Section: 05 - Politics; Chapter: 042 - Listening; Kural Number: 0420}

செவியிற் சுவையுணரா வாயுணர்வின் மாக்கள்
அவியினும் வாழினும் என்

What if, who don’t feel taste of ear but
of mouth, either die or live?

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: What is the benefit, if those who do not realize the taste of listening-knowledge that is food for the ear; but realize only the taste of mouth, either die or live?

(Likewise…)

What is the difference, if those who do not understand the magnificence of agriculture that is life of the world; but understand only the magnificence of money, either get superior or inferior?
