Today · Thirukkural · verse 547 · Discipline

இறைகாக்கும் வையகம் எல்லாம் அவனை முறைகாக்கும் முட்டாச் செயின்.

Iṟai kākkum vaiyakam ellām avaṉai / muṟai kākkum muṭṭāch seyiṉ.

If you uphold order in your conduct, the entire world upholds its duty to you—the debt is repaid without fail.

Right action is not a plea for reciprocity; it is the only reliable hinge upon which the world turns. When you keep your compact with virtue, circumstances arrange themselves in accordance with reason.
