உடல் பற்றி நான் என்றும், பொருள் பற்றி எனது என்றும் வரும் செருக்கை மனத்துள் இருந்து அறுத்து விட்டவன், வானவர்க்கும் மேலான வீட்டுலகத்தை அடைவான்.

யான், எனது என்கின்ற ஆணவத்தை அறவே விலக்கி விட்டவன், வான்புகழையும் மிஞ்சுகின்ற உலகப் புகழுக்கு உரியவனாவான்

உடம்பை யான் எனக் கருதலும் தொடர்பு இல்லாத பொருளை எனது எனக்கருதலுமாகிய மயக்கத்தை போக்குகின்றவன், தேவர்க்கும் எட்டாத உயர்ந்த நிலை அடைவான்.

Shall enter realms above the powers divine

Kural 346 delves into the importance of detaching oneself from the ego and materialistic possessions. The verse states that a person who relinquishes the sense of 'I' and 'mine', signifying the ego and attachment to worldly possessions respectively, will attain a state that is superior even to the divine realms. The phrase 'I' here symbolizes the ego, the sense of self that confines us within a physical body and mind. 'Mine' refers to the attachment towards materialistic possessions, which binds us to the physical world. The verse emphasizes that only by relinquishing both these forms of attachment, can one achieve a state of consciousness that surpasses even the divine. This is a spiritual state of being that transcends the physical world and its limitations. In other words, the verse suggests that the key to attain the highest spiritual planes is to get rid of ego and attachment. This is a common theme in many spiritual philosophies, particularly in Buddhism and Hinduism, which stress on the need for detachment and ego dissolution for spiritual enlightenment. In broader terms, this verse also encourages humility and altruism, as the shedding of 'I' and 'mine' implies prioritizing the collective good over personal desires and recognitions. It teaches us to see ourselves as part of a larger whole, rather than individual entities centered around our own needs and wants.
