Tirukkural-On Virtue-On Rectitude-Kural 116
Naduorii alla seyin
If one's mind swerves from rectitude and contemplates evil deeds,The inevitable consequence will be one's own ruin.
This Kural emphasises that the basic virtue is rectitude in thought itself and that breach of it would spell ruin. It, therefore, follows that if evil deeds are also done in pursuance of the thought, disaster is certain. It is not merely the fear of ruin or of disaster to follow, that should deter the just man from doing an act of injustice, but more, the inherent disgrace of it all. Such a thought might have prompted the Greek Philosopher Plato to say.
'To do injustice is more disgraceful than to suffer it'
The following lines of the Bible are relevant;
'The
thoughts
of
the
righteous
are
right;
but
the
counsels
of
the
wicked
are
deceitful'.
(Proverbs 12:5)
'As
righteousness
tendeth
to
life;
so
he
that
pursueth
evil
pursueth
it
to
his
own
death'
(Proverbs 11:19)
