To trust or promote someone who lacks knowledge or wisdom simply out of affection or partiality leads to great folly and causes many troubles. Favoring the ignorant due to love or bias results in widespread ignorance and failures.
This kural cautions against blind partiality and stresses the importance of choosing and trusting individuals based on their knowledge and competence, not merely on affection or emotional bonds.
