{Division: 2 - Wealth; Section: 05 - Politics; Chapter: 042 - Listening; Kural Number: 0415}

இழுக்கல் உடையுழி ஊற்றுக்கோல் அற்றே
ஒழுக்க முடையார்வாய்ச் சொல்

Speech by the disciplined scholars is
like crutch in slippery place

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: The listening-knowledge gained from the speech of disciplined scholars, is like the crutch that is useful to stand firmly at the slippery place.

(Likewise…)

The true-wisdom learned through the guidance of graceful guru, is like the floater that helps reaching the shore without drowning in the extremely deep ocean.
