Patience and Compassion

The patience and compassion of Bhoo Devi (Mother Earth) is also praised by Thiruvalluvar.

Tirukkural 151: “Agazhvaarai Taangum nilam pOla tammai, Igazhvaarai poruttal talai”.

Meaning:
  • When someone insults you or disrespects you, please be patient and do not take revenge.
  • Just as the earth that bears the man who tills and digs it, to bear those who speak ill of them, is a quality of the highest respect.

I pray to God to always bless me with patience and compassion.
