இணர் ஊழ்த்தும் நாறா மலர் அனையர் தாம் கற்றது
உணர விரித்துரையா தார். (48)
When the work has been completed and the wage due to the work is paid, we say that the objective nature of the ,work done is its product, செயப்படு பொருள். The pleasure derived at the completion of the work is வினைப்பயன். i, e. the fruit of the வினை. The pleasure the labourer enjoys on receipt of the wage is the fruit of his work or வினை. Till the வினைப்பயன். is enjoyed, it stands aloof waiting for the opportunity to afford enjoyment. In that state it is called ஊழ்வினை or ஊழ். If the வினைப்பயன், the fruit of Karma, is pleasure, it is called ஆகூழ், and if it is otherwise, it is போகூழ். When ஆகூழ் (Fortune) presents pleasure, our mind becomes clear and brisk in preparation to receive it in good spirits. If it is போகூழ், it proposes laziness and indifference in us.
