Study of Civakacintamani
Truth
meyy urai vilanku mani mēl ulaka kopuranka! aiyam ilai ninra pukal vai yokattu mannum mai yal viļai mā naraka kõpurankaļ kanţir
poyy uraiyum vēnța purattițumin enrun.1
( If you speak the truth, your fame will ever be in this world and in your next birth you will acquire the jewelled temples of heaven. Do not speak lies which give you the confusing temples of hell. (Therefore] give up speaking lies.)
Non-Stealing
mulari muka naka mulaiy eyir uçutu kira aļavi ruyar cey vari van mannar atanälum viļaiv ariya ma tuyaram vil katiyul uykkum kalavu katanakak katintițutal cūta. 2
( It would be best to give up stealing immediately because, ( when one does it ] in this world, the king will kill by piercing him with the tusk of the elephant which has a face like a lotus. [ It will also cause one to fall into hell where one undergoes hardship.)
Celibacy
mațattakaiya nallar manan kariya märrär pițart talai ol val por pirar manaikal cerin ețupp ariya tunpatt ițaip patuvar innā națukk utai ya kāmam vițuttițuta nanre. 8
( If one goes to the wife of another man thus placing a sword on his own neck, and causes his wife who is innocent ( matamai ) to worry, he brings on himself unbearable worries. (Therefore, ) it is better to renounce his lustful inconstancy.)
Non-Posesssion
teruļir porul vānulakam er utarkkuc cempon iruļil pațukāl puka! vittilaiyenin ella arulu naka vaiya nokay aimporiyu naiyap poruļu nakav itfum porul yatum porul anrē.
(If one realises [this, he will know that) the wealth, which is achieved while the world, the grace, and the wealth itself laugh at it and the five senses suffer without enjoying it, is not the real wealth. The real wealth will give one fame in the world and it will also serve as a ladder to reach the
golden world in the next birth.) 1 Cc. v. 2869 2 Ibid, v. 2870 3 lbid, 2871
