Kural 81<\/p>\n
The whole purpose of earning wealth and maintaining
\na home is to provide hospitality to guests.
\nKural 82<\/p>\n
When a guest is in the home, it is improper to hoard one’s meal,
\neven if it happens to be the nectar of immortality.
\nKural 83<\/p>\n
If a man cares daily for those who come to him,
\nhis life will never suffer the grievous ruin of poverty.
\nKural 84<\/p>\n
Wealth’s Goddess dwells in the hospitable home
\nof those who host guests with a smiling face.
\nKural 85<\/p>\n
If a man eats only after attending to guests’ needs,
\nwhat further sowing will his fertile fields require?
\nKural 86<\/p>\n
The host who, caring for guests, watches hopefully for more,
\nwill himself be a welcomed guest of those whose home is Heaven.
\nKural 87<\/p>\n
Charity’s merit cannot be measured by gifts given.
\nIt is measured by measuring the receiver’s merits.
\nKural 88<\/p>\n
Those who never sacrifice to care for guests will later lament:
\n”We hoarded wealth, estranged ourselves, now none will care for us.”
\nKural 89<\/p>\n
The poverty of poverties is having plenty yet shunning guests.
\nSuch senselessness is only found in senseless fools.
\nKural 90<\/p>\n
The delicate anicham flower withers when merely smelled,
\nbut an unwelcome look is enough to wither a guest’s heart.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
