WISDOM FROM THIRUKKURAL 3 – THE BLESSINGS OF RAIN

2. THE BLESSINGS OF RAIN

11. Living organisms are present only on earth because of the duly service of the rain. Rain which is an indispensible part of our existence can be considered analogous as ambrosia (a food eaten of Gods) to our life.

12. What a dedication from the rain! It helps us to gain food materials by aiding the growth of vegetables and fruits. Also, the same rain transforms itself into the food that we consume. Without rain, we won’t get grain.

13. Even though our earth may be enclosed by massive water sources like sea or ocean, if mother-like rain fails to show its blessing, every living organism might be troubled by drought and desertification.

14. Food is the basic need of our life. Food is produced by farmer, who is important member of our existence. If rain fails, farming fail, hence food output fail and at last, we fail.

15. Rain has ambiguous properties of destruction. By under-rendering its services, it makes lives on earth to suffer through drought and by over-rendering its services, it makes lives on earth to suffer through flood.
