If the Mind is not Tranquilized, What is the Point in Speaking?

Prayer of the Day

Prayer song in Tamil

 

சினம் இறக்கக் கற்றாலும் சித்தி எல்லாம் பெற்றாலும்
மனம் இறக்கக் கல்லார்க்கு வாய் ஏன் பராபரமே

Padal as Romanized text

 

sinam iRakkak kaRRAlum siththi ellAm peRRAlum 
manam iRakkak kallArkku vAy En parAparamE

Meaning of the Prayer Song:


Even if one acquires the ability to conquer anger,
acquires the various attainments (Siddhi),
if does not know to tranquilise the mind,
what is the point in the (useless) speech? Oh Supreme!

 Notes: 


1. The anger and attainments come as one has good Tapas (austerity).
However, the mind will not attain tranquillity unless there is Gyana (wisdom).
Without realizing the wisdom that tranquilizes and sets permanently in Bliss,
what is the point of all useless speech. It is all ostentation only.
