Last holidays, my 7-year-old daughter and I decided to spend productively by reading one Thirukkural a day. As I was picking the ones that might be relevant to her, I was surprised by how deeply Thiruvalluvar wrote about the art of communication.. How to speak, when to speak, how to persuade, and most importantly… when not to speak. I realised that these 2,000-year-old lines are still incredibly relevant. So, I am bringing them here to a wider audience, one Kural every week,
