நல்ல துணை, செல்வம் தரும்; செயல் சுத்தமோ நாம் விரும்பிய எல்லாவற்றையும் தரும்.

ஒருவருக்குக் கிடைக்கும் துணைவர்களால் வலிமை பெருகும்; அவர்களுடன் கூடி ஆற்றிடும் நற்செயல்களால் எல்லா நலன்களும் கிட்டும்

ஒருவனுக்கு வாய்த்த துணையின் நன்மை ஆக்கத்தைக் கொடுக்கும், செய்யும் வினையின் நன்மை அவன் விரும்பிய எல்லாவற்றையும் கொடுக்கும்.

The efficacy of support will yield (only) wealth; (but) the efficacy of action will yield all that is desired

This Kural, number 651, speaks about the power of action and the benefits of having good allies or support. The verse points out that having supportive allies can indeed bring prosperity or wealth, but it is the quality and efficacy of one's own actions that will yield all that one desires. By this verse, Thiruvalluvar emphasizes the importance of individual effort and action over dependency on others. While good support can provide material wealth, it is ultimately one's own actions that determine the variety of benefits one can attain, including those beyond material wealth. It implies that personal initiative, diligence, and perseverance in action are critical to achieving comprehensive success and fulfilling all desires. In a broader sense, this verse also encourages self-reliance, hard work, and the power of personal efforts in shaping one's life, destiny, and the attainment of desired goals. It underlines the philosophy that while external support is beneficial, it is our actions that truly shape our outcomes.
