The punchline here is the fact that our people of
ancient times had the right approach to such works of art, poetry and devotion.
The Guru-shishhya-paramparA took care to see that such works were handed over
only to those who could be expected to
have the right approach.
Whether the work
was religious or poetical, mystical or secular, they would, when
communicating with the public, only touch such delicate works and not elaborate upon them in detail.
Accordingly, when the

character, apparently repugnant to him,
he does not get distracted, because his main aim always was to take only
those things which suited his taste and which were recommended to him by
elders.
