Thirukural - Chapter 21 Cont....
209 - தன்னைத்தான் காதல னாயின் எனைத்தொன்றுந்
துன்னற்க தீவினைப் பால்.
Beware, if to thyself thyself is dear,
Lest thou to aught that ranks as ill draw near!
Explanation:
தனது நலத்தை விரும்புகிறவன் தீய செயல்களின் பக்கம் சிறிதளவுகூட நெருங்கலாகாது.
If a man love himself, let him not commit any sin however small.
