Verse 344: Misreading the past
344. Misreading the past
நேற்றின் படியே யினிவரும் நாளென்றார்நேற்றை யறியா தவர்
netrin padiye yinivarum naalendraarnetrai yariyaa thavar
Those who have said the day to come will be exactly like yesterday do not know yesterday.
‘Know’ (ari) here means understanding, not memory: they lived through yesterday without understanding it.
