  From the Garland of Guru's Sayings - Prof. Swaminathan' s translation

 

48.INNER PURITY

 

P.48

V. 246

 

Seeing only outer beauty

And not the inner,

Leads but to ruin dire.

It's like the moth desiring the bright flame

Or like the cobra mating with the viper.

 

The Garland of Guru's Sayings or Guru Vachaka Kovai is by Sri Muruganar, who

before and after his Self Realisation, through Sri Bhagavan's Grace, recorded

Sri Ramana's utterances and set them into Tamil verse. This poetic translation

by Prof. Swaminathan is in free verse form, and is published by Ramanasramam.
