Tirukkural-On Virtue-Family Life-Kural 46

Real
happiness
is
achieved
by
following
domestic
virtues,
What
then
is
gained
by
seeking
any
other
path?
In
this
Kural
'Arathaaru'
would
mean
all
that
has
been
defined
in
the
previous
Kurals,
a
life
of
love
and
virtue,
including
'Paziyanji',
(i.e.,)
faultless
earning
and
generous
sharing.
If
domestic
life
patterned
along
these
lines
can
give
fulfillment,
there
is
really
no
point
in
going
round
in
search
of
other
ways
of
life.
But
it
is
the
'Purathaaru',
that
has
been
interpreted
variously
be
commentators.
But
the
best
still
is
Parimelalagar's
of
'leaving
the
house
and
retiring
to
the
forest',
which
has
also
been
accepted
and
amplified
by
Rajaji.
The
interpretation
of
Parithi
and
Pazhaya
Urai,
equating
'Purathaaru'
to
'sinful
ways'
is
naively
inappropriate
and
deserves
to
be
rejected.
The same idea of 'Arathaaru' has been expressed in Agananuru thus,
