Elimination Of Desire
oi-Priya Devi
By Priya Devi

Vaendaamai vaenda varum
There is nothing worthier to be desired than release from births,
And this comes only out of the absence of all desire.
The deliverance from the cycle of births and deaths is the summit of all human achievement, motivation and this can be had only by those who renounce all desire.,
An echo of this sentiment is heard in Sundaramurthi Nayanar"s devotional poetry thus;
'Yengonae unnai vaendik kolvaen piravaamaiye'
