Thirukural written by Thiruvalluvar consists of three books, the first book on Aram (the Way or Dharma), the second on Porul (Material or Artha) and the third on Inbam (Joy or Kama).

There are 37 chapters in the first book, the first four called Payiram or Prefactory Matter, the next twenty about Ill-Aram (the householder’s Dharma) and the next thirteen about Turavaram (the path of Renunciation). The second book on Porul contains seventy chapters, the first twenty dealing with Kings and their Duties, the succeeding thirty two chapters with the other matters concerning the State, and next thirteen, with Sundry Concerns. The third book on Inbam contains twenty five chapters, the first seven being on Pre Marital Love (Kalavu) and the next eighteen on Marital Love.

There are 133 chapters in all, each chapter contains ten distichs in the metre known as Kural and the work itself is now called by that name.

    கனமான குழை என்னும் காதணியை அணிந்து நிற்கும் இவள் தெய்வப்பெண்ணோ! சிறந்த ஒரு மயிலோ! ஒரு மனிதப் பெண்ணோ? இவளை இன்னவள் என்று அறிய முடியாமல் என் நெஞ்சம் மயங்குகின்றது.

    Goddess? or peafowl rare? She whose ears rich jewels wear,
    Is she a maid of human kind? All wildered is my mind!
  • Meaning
    Is this jewelled female a celestial, a choice peahen, or a human being ? My mind is perplexed.
