[Advaita-l] doubt on spoken bad language

[sriram]

Dear Sirs
In the Thirukkural in Tamil Literature a beautiful couplet is there
regarding the avoidance of bad language while communicating or making a
point.It goes as follows:Iniya ulavaga innatha kooral kaniyiruppa kai
kavarnthatru.The meaning is when sweet palatable words are available
speaking harsh or unpalatable words is like choosing unriped fruits to
ripened fruits for eating.One has to cultivate consciously the habit of
speaking only good/sweet words-like our Hanumanji.
R.Krishnamoorthy.

Among the very famous verses quoted from the scriptures, the following
stands out in context:

Satyam bruyaat, priyam bruyaat, na bruyaat satyam apriyam.

Speak the truth, speak Love, also do not speak truth which is unpalatable
