உடம்பு துன்பத்திற்கு இடமாவதே என்று தெளிந்த மேன்மக்கள், உடம்பிற்கு வந்த துன்பத்தைப் துன்பமாக எண்ணி மனந் தளரமாட்டார்.

துன்பம் என்பது உயிருக்கும் உடலுக்கும் இயல்பானதே என்பதை உணர்ந்த பெரியோர், துன்பம் வரும் போது அதனைத் துன்பமாகவே கருத மாட்டார்கள்

மேலோர், உடம்பு துன்பத்திற்கு இலக்கமானது என்று உணர்ந்து, (துன்பம் வந்த போது) கலங்குவதை ஒழுக்க நெறியாகக் கொள்ளமாட்டர்.

The great will not regard trouble as trouble, knowing that the body is the butt of trouble

The Kural 627 emphasizes the wisdom of understanding the inherent nature of the human body to experience trouble or discomfort. The verse encourages a philosophical perspective, suggesting that wise and enlightened individuals do not regard physical troubles as a cause for distress or anxiety. The human body, by its very nature, is prone to discomfort and disease. This is a fundamental truth, a part of the human condition. Those who understand this, the 'great' as referred to in the verse, do not panic or get distressed when they face physical trouble. They accept it as something natural and inherent to the physical existence. This verse encourages a stoic approach to life's troubles. It suggests that we should not let physical discomfort unduly disturb our mental peace. Instead, we should accept it as a normal part of life. This acceptance helps us to maintain our composure and equanimity even in the face of trouble. The verse also subtly hints at the impermanent and transient nature of physical existence. It advocates an attitude of detachment and acceptance, which can help us navigate through life's challenges with grace and resilience. In summary, Kural 627 teaches us to have a realistic understanding of the human body's susceptibility to discomfort and to bear such discomfort with equanimity and courage.
