Abstract

Acharakkovai is a poetic work which expounds the essential morals for the human life development. Acharakkovai is one among the eighteen Tamil works that deals with ethics and morals. This book shows the moral behaviour of the creatures living around, even if they are not depraved. We learn something from habits, just like we learn from others how to eat food for protection, how to build a good character from elders  and so on.  Thus the text Acharakkovai gives a clear idea about how to lead a life.
