#KROM 21. Why is it Hard to Believe in Spirituality?
21. ககொ3 ஆன்மீக விஷயுமுனும் நொம்கெ சுளுவ்கன் அவரனி?
பி4த்தர் தொ3ளொ ப4ந்தி3லெ மூர்குக் ஒண்டெ விஷயம் தெ3க்கட3த்தக் ஜியெத், ஜியெத்தெகொ3 முட்டாள் ஹொவையாய்! ககொ3 மெனெத், தெல்லே மூர்கு தெக3 களயய தெ3ல்லி திஸோஸ் அஸ்கி மெனி சது3ஞ்சை!
ஸான்களனாத்தெக2 ஸான்ஸிக்கட3த்தெக ஸான்ஸுட்டியொ, ஸான்களனாத்தெனோ தென் ஸியயோஸ் தெ4ல்லெஸ்!
One who tries to explain something to a stubbornly egoistic person will end up confused himself, as the stubborn will continue to see only as he wants to see. It is hard to offer help to a fool as it may backfire and so, wise keep their own counsel.
காணாதாற் (கு) காட்டுவான் தான்காணான் காணாதான்
கண்டானாம் தான் கண்டவாறு. 849
kaaNathaaR (ku) kaaTTuvaan thaankaaNaan kaaNaathaan
kaNDaanaam thaan kaNDavaaRu.
People know only as much as what comes within the range of their consciousness. Without getting help, they will not be able to understand those who have broader consciousness than themselves or those who have a different range of consciousness (e.g., a reason-predominant person will have issues understanding a feeling-predominant person).
In this Kural, while commenting on stupidity, Sri Valluvar inadvertently describes the nature of consciousness and its relevance to faith. Spirituality is about evolving one's own consciousness. Since these teachings cannot be proven objectively, as in the other subjects that material science deals with, it requires faith. As mentioned above about the nature of consciousness, it is indeed difficult to believe in spirituality. To make it worse, in the name of spirituality, there are quacks and hypocrites who spoil the tender plants of faith in people.
(So, to whom, how to, and what to seek help?)
