Background
A description of the experience
Tirrukural, the - Book 1 Gratitude
101. Neither earth nor heaven can truly repay
Spontaneous aid.
102. Given in time, even a trifling help
Exceeds the earth.
103. Help given regardless of return
Is wider than the sea.
104. To the discerning a millet of aid
Is as big as a palm fruit.
105. Not according to the aid but its receiver
Is its recompense determined.
106. Do not neglect the friendship of the pure
Nor forsake the props in your need.
107. The good remember through all seven births
The friends who wiped their tears.
108. To forget a good turn is not good, and good it is
To forget at once what isn't good.
109. Deadly though one's sting, one's one good deed
Remembered acts as balm.
110. All other sins may be redeemed,
Except ingratitude.
