Just imagine for a
moment that the Rain god refuses to provide rain. what will happen then.kural
says that in the absence of any rain water trickling down from the sky to the
earth, not even a single blade of grass will grow here. All the living
creatures will scorch themselves to hunger and death , notwithstanding a
enormous amount of water enveloping the earth.
That vast expanse of water is of little significance to the masses.The
resulting poverty and famine, pestilence and fear will inflict more pain and
last for long without any kind of redemption.
If the quantum of rainfall declines reflecting the depletion
of water resources above the farmers will not take their ploughs and perform
their farming activities and agriculture as an occupation will get a severe
beating and will get eventually abandoned.
It is not just farmers and of course all the consumers will
lose in the life game but also the spillover effects will touch the heaven
above and the ocean below. If the rain gathering clouds dry out themselves
faster who will bother to appease the
rain God by giving the offerings in the
form of all gifts and Pooja. That is ,
the exalted status enjoyed by the ministers among Devas in charge of rain will
be deleted in the minds of people.
In the same vein even the great oceans constantly roaring on
earth in an endless fashion will come to their grief by losing their innate
quality and attributes-their inherent fertility
and the utility .When the rain giving clouds are inadequate and hence unable to have the necessary room for romance through thunder and
lightning.
