Kural Number: 0180 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 1 - அறத்துப்பால்; இயல்: 02 - இல்லறவியல்; அதிகாரம்: 018 - வெஃகாமைகுறள் எண்: 0180}
{Division: 1 - Ethics ; Section: 02 - Family Ethics; Chapter: 018 - Not Coveting; Kural Number: 0180}

இறலீனும் எண்ணாது வெஃகின் விறல்ஈனும்
வேண்டாமை என்னுஞ் செருக்கு

Coveting without thinking, destructs; decisive thought
of unwilling yields victory

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: Coveting others' belongings, without thinking the consequences, leads to destruction; whereas, decisive thought of unwilling the coveting, yields victory.
(Likewise...)
Destroying the farm-lands, without realizing the impact, will trigger famine; whereas, assured act to prevent such destruction, will enhance the life-standard.
