Samsara as flow - Mankuthimma (ಹರಿವಂತೆ ಸಂಸಾರ - ಮಂಕುತಿಮ್ಮ)

ನರನಾರಿಮೋಹದಿಂ ವಂಶವದಕಾಗಿ ಮನೆ ।
ನೆರೆ ಹೊರೆಗಳೂರು ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರಗಳು ಸಂಘಗಳು ॥
ಕೆರೆಯೊಂದು ಕೇಂದ್ರದಿಂದಲೆಯೆ ಬಳೆಗಳು ನೂರು ।
ಹರಿವಂತೆ ಸಂಸಾರ - ಮಂಕುತಿಮ್ಮ ॥ ೪೦೬ ॥


naranArimOhadim vamshavadakAgi mane ।

harivante samsAra - Mankutimma ॥ 406 ॥

"From the love between a man and woman starts a family and a dynasty. To support a family, a house. Then neighbors. Later villages and then nations and alliances. There is only one pod. But a vibration started at the center of it creates a hundred waves spreading in all direction. Such is this world. " - Mankutimma
