A good discussion. Somebody can give a final verdict as to the real meaning of 'pennukku Idam kodale to clear doubts and to put an end to the debate

 

[pannvalan]

'Mara' means not asking one to forget. But, the real meaning is 'stop, don't continue further', after a particular stage in one's life - say, after marrying the same girl.

There are three cardinal vices which are root cause for most evil deeds. Those vices are 'mann (real estate), ponn (gold) and penn (women). The misplaced sex urge, that is, the desire for sex with any good looking women can be really dangerous and can ruin a person completely. 'Pennukku Idam kodel' means, don't develop desire for uncntrolled sex. Of course, intimacy with the right woman, namely 'thy wife' is not a problem. This is how I understood that proverb from the childhood.

The second option is more fitting one

Thank you. It is a clear explanation. Why Mann and Ponn not added in the proverb

 

[vikrama]

The proverb says that man turns dog at forty. The dog hates new men. Man on attaining forty, loses interest in new things and is not prepared to meet new challenges. He is content with his old living place, old friends, old job etc.
நாற்பது வயதில் நாய்க் குணம் என்று பழமொழி கூறுகிறது. நாயின் சிறந்த குணமான நன்றி உடைமை இங்கே குறிக்கப்படவில்லை. புதிய மனிதர்களை ஏற்றுக் கொள்ள மறுத்துக் குரைக்கும் குணமே இங்கு கூறப்படுகிறது. பொதுவாகக் குழந்தைகள் புதிய நண்பர்கள், புதிய விளையாட்டுகள், புதிய இடங்கள் இவற்றில் மகிழ்ச்சி காண்பார்கள். வயதான பிறகு நாம் இந்தப் பண்பை இழந்து விடுகிறோம்.
