{பால்: 2 - பொருட்பால்; இயல்: 05 - அரசியல்; அதிகாரம்: 055 - செங்கோன்மை; குறள் எண்: 0542}

{Division: 2 - Wealth; Section: 05 - Politics; Chapter: 055 - The Scepter; Kural Number: 0542}

வான்நோக்கி வாழும் உலகெல்லாம் மன்னவன்
கோல்நோக்கி வாழும் குடி

World live, based on sky; citizens
live, based on king's scepter

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: As the life of lives on earth is based on the amount of rain, the life of citizens will be based on the scepter of a king.

(Likewise…)

As the function of body-organs is based on the nature of cells, the action of human will be based on the thoughts in a mind.
