Kural Number: 0247 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 1 - அறத்துப்பால்; இயல்: 03 - துறவறவியல்; அதிகாரம்: 025 -  அருளுடைமை; குறள் எண்: 0247}

{Division: 1 - Ethics ; Section: 03 - Abdication Ethics; Chapter: 025 - Benignity; Kural Number: 0247}

அருளில்லார்க்கு அவ்வுலகம் இல்லை பொருளில்லார்க்கு
இவ்வுலகம் இல்லாகி யாங்கு

As this world isn't for poor, that
world isn't for ungracious

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: People who do not have wealth, do not have greatness on earth! Likewise, people who do not have grace, would not have greatness on heaven.

(Likewise...)

Those who do not have work, do not have value at home! Similarly, those who do not do public-work, would not have value in the society.
