Innocent And Honest People By Mind, Word And Physically! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Innocent And Honest People By Mind, Word And Physically!



Eating after taking bath
…as and whenever you are going to eat;

By not telling false witnesses leaning on one side
…whatever benefits you may get;

By not shrinking in their esteemed virtue
…even if they happen to emaciate and die of hunger;

Are the three activities of those people who are
…considered that they are innocent and honest
By mind, word and physically!
