Tirukkural-On Virtue-On Love Or Affection-Kural 79
Love Affection
-Staff
By Staff
Akatturuppu anpi lavarkku.
If a man's heart is devoid of love,
Of
what
avail
are
the
externals?
Have
we
not
seen
people
who,
to
all
appearances,
have
a
sound
eye
or
ear,
but
are
blind
and
deaf
to
all
other
intents
and
purposes?
So
too,
a
householder's
life
becomes
purposeless
and
reduces
itself
to
just
a
soul-less
routine,
without
a
tender
heart.
Though
possessed
of
all
the
human
organs
and
accessories,
such
a
man
without
affection
has
missed
the
very
purpose
of
life
and
is
no
more
human.
Kural 34 emphasised only the absence of impurity or blemish in the heart; in this Kural the need for positive love is stressed.
