Kural Number: 0449 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 2 - பொருட்பால்; இயல்: 05 - அரசியல்; அதிகாரம்: 045 - பெரியாரைத் துணைக்கோடல்; குறள் எண்: 0449}

{Division: 2 - Wealth; Section: 05 - Politics; Chapter: 045 - Utilizing the Elders for Support; Kural Number: 0449}

முதலிலார்க்கு ஊதிய மில்லை மதலையாஞ்
சார்பிலார்க் கில்லை நிலை

One haven't income without investment! One
haven't stability without elders' support!

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: There is no perpetual income for those who have not invested! Similarly, those who do not have the support of pillar-like elders, cannot be stable!

(Likewise...)

There is no durable life to the building that has no foundation! Comparably, those who do not have the support of drain-like relationships, cannot be happy!
