Ancient wisdom
for modern minds.
Two thousand years of Tamil philosophy, rendered in a modern Stoic voice. One verse a day. Or a whole library at your own pace.
Today · Thirukkural · verse 756 · Wealth
உறுபொருளும் உல்கு பொருளும்தன் ஒன்னார்த் தெறுபொருளும் வேந்தன் பொருள்.
Uruporulam vul̤ku porulam than onnaarth / Teruporulam venthan porul.
The wealth a man has earned, the wealth he possesses, and the wealth he despises—all belong to the king. Nothing is truly yours to hold.
A ruler's authority over all material things—earned, inherited, or rejected—is a reminder that possession is only a temporary stewardship. Your freedom lies not in what you control, but in your indifference to losing it.
