Abstract
Thirukkural, the sweet, living entity of the Tamil man, is divided into three divisions, namely, virtue, wealth, and pleasure, and consists of 133 chapters and 1330 couplets in nine parts. Thirukkural is translated into more than 110 languages. Manakkudavar was the first to write the foreword to this book, which has been translated into the second most widely translated language in the world. Nevertheless, Parimelazhagar's foreword is hailed as the best text. Malaiyatthuvasamakanar Gnanaprakasam published this book in Thanjavur in 1812. Thirukkural has been praised by Leo Tolstoy, Bernard Shaw, G.U. Pope, Veerama Munivar, and many others. Bharathi said that Tamil Nadu has become famous by giving Valluvan to the world, and Bharathidasan praised that this world received fame due to having Valluvan. This article is intended to examine the cultural records found in the chapter on Married Life in Domestic Virtue in such an excellent Thirukkural.
