Kural Number: 0209 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 1 - அறத்துப்பால்; இயல்: 02 - இல்லறவியல்; அதிகாரம்: 021 -  தீவினையச்சம்; குறள் எண்: 0209}

{Division: 1 - Ethics ; Section: 02 - Family Ethics; Chapter: 021 - Fear of Evil Deeds; Kural Number: 209}

தன்னைத்தான் காதல னாயின் எனைத்தொன்றும்
துன்னற்க தீவினைப் பால்

Those love their self shouldn't do
even least effective evil

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: If one love their own self, they should not do the evil deeds however less effective the deeds may be.

(Likewise...)

If one is fond of their profession, they should not violate the rule whatever may be the level of violation.
