What Is Learnt Without Understanding The Substance Of It! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

What Is Learnt Without Understanding The Substance Of It!



For all the people who live in this world
Surrounded by the roaring extensive ocean,

It is said that what is learnt without understanding
The substance of it is not considered as learning!

It is also said that what is learnt without
offering the due gift or fees to the teacher
is not considered as learning!
