காதல் நுகர்ச்சிக்கு இன்பம் ஊடுதலே அவ்வூடலுக்கும் இன்பம், அளவு அறிந்து ஊடலை நீக்கிக் கூடித் தழுவுதலே.

ஒருவருக்கொருவர் செல்லமாகச் சினங்கொண்டு பிரிந்திருப்பது எனப்படும் ஊடல், இருவரும் சேர்ந்த பிறகு காதல் இன்பத்தை அதிகமாகப் பருகிட உதவும் எனவே ஊடல் கொள்வதே ஒரு இன்பமான செயல்தான்

காமத்திற்கு இன்பம் தருவது ஊடுதல் ஆகும், ஊடல் முடிந்த பின் கூடித் தழுவப் பெற்றால் அந்த ஊடலுக்கு இன்பமாகும்.

Dislike adds delight to love; and a hearty embrace (thereafter) will add delight to dislike

Kural 1330 discusses the dynamics of love and the role of temporary separation, referred to as 'Oodal' in the Tamil language. This verse highlights the concept that a temporary estrangement or disagreement between lovers can actually enhance the joy of love when they reconcile. The first line, "Oodal for love is pleasure", illustrates that a small disagreement or a brief period of separation in a loving relationship can actually intensify the affection between the partners. This may seem paradoxical, but it is through the experience of absence that one often realizes the depth of their love and the importance of the other person in their life. The second line, "that pleasure increases when they embrace after the separation", further deepens this understanding. The joy of reconciliation, the act of coming together after a disagreement or separation, not only resolves the conflict but also enhances the pleasure of love. It is like the pleasure of quenching one's thirst after a period of longing. The pain of separation makes the joy of unification even more delightful. This Kural, therefore, emphasizes the value of 'Oodal' in love. It encourages understanding, patience, and reconciliation in a loving relationship, underlining that sometimes, a brief period of estrangement can strengthen the bond rather than weaken it. However, it also subtly hints that any such separation should be temporary and not prolonged, as the ultimate joy lies in the lovers' reunion and embrace.
