Kural 651<\/p>\n
Good friendships bring wealth to a man,
\nbut goodness of action fulfills his every wish.
\nKural 652<\/p>\n
Fame-garnering actions of no real benefit
\nshould always be strictly avoided.
\nKural 653<\/p>\n
Declaring that their future will be brighter,
\nmen must desist from deeds that darken glory’s light.
\nKural 654<\/p>\n
However troubled the times, men of imperturbable perception
\nnever commit shameful or sordid deeds.
\nKural 655<\/p>\n
Do nothing that would make you regret, ”What have I done!”
\nHowever, if regrettable deeds occur, do not remain regretful.
\nKural 656<\/p>\n
Though he must behold his own mother’s hunger,
\nlet a man desist from deeds condemned by wise men.
\nKural 657<\/p>\n
The worst poverty of worthy men is more worthwhile
\nthan the greatest wealth amassed by wrongful means.
\nKural 658<\/p>\n
Forbidden deeds, however well accomplished, inflict sorrow
\non those who seek after rather than shun them.
\nKural 659<\/p>\n
What is gained by tears will go by tears. Even if it begins
\nwith loss, in the end, goodness gives many good things.
\nKural 660<\/p>\n
Protecting the country with wrongly garnered wealth
\nis like preserving water in an unbaked clay pot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
