The gunja seed is a glossy red, but at one end it has a black spot, called its 'nose'. 'Purangunri kandanaiyar' means: though they look beautiful like the gunja seed from outside; 'agangunri mukkir kariyaar' means: black inside like the nose-tip of the seed.\n\nThe beauty of the comparison lies in the picture. People who see a gunja seed are charmed by its beauty, and all except the dark tip shines. In the same way some people look fine in speech and conduct, while a dark spot remains in their heart. The image does not accuse everyone; 'udaiththu' simply warns that there are such people.\n\nCommentators take 'udaiththu' to mean that there are many such in the world, and take the gunja as the red seed of a wild creeper with a black tip. Since the gunja seed was also used in our villages as a small weight for weighing gold, one may say that Valluvar chose it as a fitting comparison knowing its honesty and beauty.\n\nThe lesson we gain from it is to be measured: not to decide at once that the heart is beautiful because a person looks beautiful, but to watch his deeds over time. At the same time we should test ourselves: what dark tip may be hidden in our own heart?","story_title_ta":"\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0bb0\u0bbe\u0bb7\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd

The Kurukshetra war was over. All hundred Kauravas had died and the Pandavas had won. After the war the Pandavas and Krishna went to Hastinapura to meet the blind king Dhritarashtra. His heart, which had lost all its hundred sons, burned with fierce anger against the Pandavas, especially Bhima, who had killed Duryodhana.\n\nBy royal custom the king should embrace and bless his victorious relatives. Yudhishthira bowed first, and Dhritarashtra embraced him with a pleasant face. Then he asked, 'Where is Bhima?' There was sweetness in his voice. But Krishna knew the blackness of his heart. Instead of sending Bhima to him, Krishna set before him a prepared iron statue in Bhima's form.\n\nSaying 'Come, my son,' Dhritarashtra embraced the iron statue with both arms. The Mahabharata says that in his arms was the strength of ten thousand elephants. When he squeezed, the iron statue shattered. His own chest was injured and blood flowed. Realising that the statue was broken, his anger subsided; weeping, he cried out, 'Alas, I have killed Bhima!'\n\nKrishna told him the truth. 'Bhima is alive. What you embraced was an iron statue. I knew the malice in your heart. You did not reveal it but hid it under the name of an embrace.' Dhritarashtra realised his mistake and grieved. Afterwards, tradition says, he blessed the Pandavas sincerely.\n\nAn embrace is an expression of love, but that day it was an instrument of anger. Red outside, the embrace; inside, black like the tip of the gunja seed.
