Words of Wisdom

திருக்குறள்

கற்க கசடறக் கற்பவை கற்றபின் நிற்க அதற்குத் தக.

கல்வியைக் கற்கும்போது குற்றமறக் கற்க வேண்டும்; கற்றபின் அக்கல்விக்கு ஏற்றவாறு நடக்க வேண்டும்.

கல்வியைக் கற்கும்போது எந்தவிதமான குறையும் இல்லாமல் முழுமையாகக் கற்க வேண்டும். கற்ற பிறகு அந்தக் கல்விக்கு ஏற்ப நன்னடத்தையுடன் வாழ வேண்டும் என்பது இக்குறளின் பொருள்.
