கல்வியா செல்வமா வீரமா ...

I was watching this movie சரஸ்வதிஸ் ஸபதம் recently.

படத்தொட கறு கேள்வி, மனிதனுக்கு மிக முக்கியமானது கல்வியா, செல்வமா, வீரமா?
நம்ப எல்லாரும் யோஸிக்க வேண்டிய விஷயம்

I personally have a take on this, but இந்த விஷயத்தை சபைக்கு கொண்டு வந்து மத்தவங்லோட கறுத்தையும் தெரிஞ்சுக்கலாம்னு ஒரு ஆஸை :-)

மனிதனுக்கு மிக அவசியம் எது? (It need not have to be any of the above mentioned too)

Thanks lot for all those who responded

My take:

I have always felt that the most important element or attribute that a man/woman should posess is honesty. This one word kind of makes all other stuff redundant. If a person is honest, he will work hard to gain knowledge. Gaining wealth or power will not be his motive. A man who is dutybound and knowledgeble, under STP conditions will be satisfied and peaceful.

Ultimately what we really care for in life is, at the end of the day when we go to bed, we should have a peaceful untroubled sleep. This can be extrapolated to life's span too!!!

Good that your writing in tamil. It will be still better if it has no spelling mistakes !

I think getting rid of all fears and anxieties and remain at peace is very important for man. Everybody wants to be happy. For some reason we think happiness is denied to us and we have to ga and get that. Knowing the root cause of that reason and getting rid of our shortcomings is what everybody strives to acheive by various means.

Umm...the spelling mistakes dont bother me much, its just great to read Tamil than Thanglish (but thats just me) :)

On a light note, sometimes i think:

"மநிதனுக்கு மிக அவசியம் மற்ற மநிதர்கள்!" :))

Sujan,

ஒரு மனிதனுக்கு மிக அவசியம் கல்வி, செல்வம் ,வீரம் மட்டுமல்ல; இந்த திறமைகளைக் கொண்டிருந்தாலும், எதை எப்போது, எதற்காக, எப்படி உபயோகிக்க வேண்டும் என்று ஆரய்ந்து பார்க்கும் துல்லியமான vision-னும்; மனித நேயமும், அடுத்தவருக்கு உதவும் குணமும்; சொந்த விருப்பு வெறுப்புக்கு இடம்கொடுக்காமல், எது தர்மமோ அதை செய்யும் குணமும்தான் ஒரு மனிதனுக்கு மிக்க அவசியமான விஷயங்கள்.

If I digress from your question, I apologize. That's just my humble opinion..:)

anonymous,
well, thanks for pointing it out. I attribute spl mistakes to a couple of things. esp this blog.
1. the editor I use is kinda pain, I will have to take immense care in choosing the letters. I was kinda bored to do that with this half English half thamizh blog. However, I do agree with you it would have been better if it was more correct.
2. I have not learnt thamizh through proper schooling. I try my level best to avoid mistakes. But adhayum meeri vandha, please correct me. Afterall this effort to write in thamizh is also to learn. enakku grammer, varthaigal, prayogangal therinja alavukku thamizh vArthaigal oda chorkkaL la vithiyasam kandu pudikka theriyadhu.

Thanks for stopping by.

RS,
romba simple badhil. I like it. But IMHO, oru stage ku mela adhuvum avasiyam illai nu thonidum. This is what I have read and heard from people who have reached that stage.

Subha,
nichayama illa. You have not at all digressed. ana konjam Madras university la 12 mark question ku ans madiri irundhuthu. just kidding. (naanga ellam, appadi dhan pages fill panniya ella subjectsum clear panra jadhi :-))

ungalodaya badhilgal, blog'kal ellam padikkarche ungalukkula naraya kovam irukkara madhiri oru ennam thonardhu. "Anniyan" padathila Vikram ku irukkara adhe kovam. saga jeeva rasigalukku edhu naerndhalum ungala romba badhikkumo?

PB ku sonna madiri I perfectly understand that there cannot be one answer to this question, ungalodiya ennathula edhu mudhalmayanadhu nu sonna nalla irukkum. :-)

Sujan, yet another timepass by yours truly and mistakes galore, take a look when you get the chance!

Sujan,
Enakku yaar melaiyum kovam ellam kidaiyaadhu ba..:) Anniyan range-ku ellam ninaichidadheenga..apram Lex-la edhavadhu kolai nadantha, ennai pidichitu poida poraango..:))
No, seriously, I don't think I am angry/frustrated et al. I just said that because that's what I believe..if I had to prioritize, I'd say that it is doing one's duty without personal preferences.

P B said...

I guess I probably self contentment is my key priority

rs,
I am just spell-bound with your command over the language. Oru mozi lendhu mozu peyarpadhe kashttam, adhuvum oru kavidhaye mozi peyarndhu, adhayum kavithuvathodu mozi peyarvadhu excellent!!!
You should be doing it at a higher frequency :-)

sb said...

aiyayo Subha,
naan edho sadharanama ketten. I did not mean to put you in trouble :-)
Well unmaya solla pona, enakku samooga kovangala naraya undu. I just cannot take hypocracy and indifference at any level. That does not mean I am divine. I do possess the same weaknesses. I hate myself during such situations. ennikkavadhu idhulendhu vidu paduvennu nambikkaila odindu irukku :-)

sb said...

PB,
sorry, mannikkavum, weekend fulla office vela pnnindu irundhen, apparum rendu naala, konjam kozhuppu eduthu poi rendu cinema pathen.
I was myself feeling guilty. podha koraikku neenga vera!!! :-)
Well about "thiruvAsagam". I am just waiting to get my hands on it. I want to buy one of those DVD's. viraivil India poren. Anga poi vangalamnu rou idea. Let me know if you know anybody who markets it here. Ungaloda blog la ezudhina friend ku yaravadhu theriyuma??

interesting blog.
came here thru subha's blog.
and yeah i think honesty is the key. including the onesty that we have lot of scope for imrovement. which comes from the fact we have self-awareness.from that comes everything.

Thamizh.hmm as you said you will improve with time.

btw that templenet - I guess Kanniks is also from cincinaati. Very interesting personality. I have spoken with him once or twice over phone. Super guy.

thanks for your time man

good job!
