Kural - 344
'Privation absolute' is penance true;
'Possession' brings bewilderment anew
Explanation
To be altogether destitute is the proper condition of those who perform austerities; if they possess anything, it will change (their resolution) and bring them back to their confused state.
Tamil Transliteration
Iyalpaakum Nonpirkondru Inmai Utaimai
Mayalaakum Matrum Peyarththu.
