பெரியவர்களிடம் கற்று, மெய்ப்பொருளை இவ்வுலகில் உணர்ந்தவர்கள் திரும்பவும் பிறக்காமல் இருக்கும் வழியில் செயல்படுவர்.

துறவற வாழ்வுக்குத் தகுதியுடையவராகச் செய்திடும் அனைத்தையும் கற்று, உண்மைப் பொருள் உணர்ந்து அதன்படி ஒழுகுபவர், மீண்டும் இல்லற வாழ்க்கையை விரும்ப மாட்டார்கள்

கற்க வேண்டிய வற்றைக் கற்று இங்கு மெய்ப் பொருளை உணர்ந்தவர் , மீண்டும் இப்பிறப்பிற்கு வராத வழியை அடைவர்.

They, who in this birth have learned to know the True Being, enter the road which returns not into this world

Kural 356 delves into the realm of spiritual wisdom and the ultimate liberation from the cycle of birth and death. This verse emphasizes the significance of true understanding and the attainment of knowledge regarding the fundamental nature of existence, often referred to as the "True Being" in spiritual parlance. The verse suggests that those who have learned and realized the true essence of life, the eternal and unchanging reality behind the transient material world, in their present birth, will attain a state of enlightenment. This enlightenment is described as a "road which returns not into this world", symbolizing liberation or 'Moksha', a state where the soul is free from the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. In other words, those who comprehend the ultimate truth about life and existence in this birth itself, live their life in such a manner that they do not have to return to this world of impermanence and suffering. This understanding guides them to lead a virtuous and righteous life, aligning themselves with the universal principles, thereby ensuring their liberation from the cycle of reincarnation. This verse underscores the importance of spiritual wisdom, self-realization, and the pursuit of enlightenment for a fulfilling and purposeful life, leading to ultimate liberation. The essence of this verse is deeply rooted in the philosophical concepts of karma, dharma, moksha, and the transient nature of life that are prevalent in Indian spiritual traditions.
