|
Answer» — Poverty is not an impediment in worshipping God. — Our body iteself — which houses the soul in it — is the temple of God. — All the material things are subjected to destruction in the course of time. — All that does not move or sway according to the will of God has a great fall one day or the other. — The spiritual, the one that moves according to God's will, is permanent. Detailed Answer : In this poem, Basavanna conveys the message that poverty is not an impediment in worshipping God as our body itself is the temple of God which houses the soul in it which is imperishable, on the other hand, all the worldly things perish with time. He further says that all-that doesn't move on way according to the will of God has a great fall one day or the other; whereas the spiritual, the one that moves according to God's will; is permanent. |
