Why Bharathiyar was frustrated ? Now I can understand

Today I was so frustrated by the (vast majority of) people in current modern world being so dumb and not thinking at all. People always want to be entertained via movies/comedies/funny videos/funny-pics-in-faceook/etc and after all entertainment they does not want to spend their time on science/documentary/history/books/etc. So I was googling for why people are so lazy and dont care a shit about anything happening around. During my search in youtube I got to see Bharathiyar's song to my surprise. and that song is "Nalladhor Veenai seidhu.."

நல்லதோர்  வீணை செய்து ... அதை நலம் கெட புழுதியில் எறிவதுண்டோ !
சொல்லடி சிவசக்தி ..
என்னை சுடர் மிகும் அறிவுடம் படைத்துவிட்டாய் !

These are the lines that made a great impact on me today.
I understood the "actual meaning" of the song just today, and I can now understand why Bharathi felt frustrated with foolish myths in India at that time, which he tried to eradicate.

One of my friend (who thinks!) usually says this "I feel like a person who was cured of his mental-illness but still living with mentally ill people in a mental-hospital". So true words!
