mylapore festival
  • Hi all
    The annual Sundaram Finance Mylapore Festival will be held from
    January 4 to 7. Over 300 artists are expected to participate.

    The traditional `kolam' contest will be held over the weekend, with
    225 women participants and 40 children. Other attractions are a
    section devoted to traditional games, walks through Mylapore, a
    traditional food festival and a plenty of music from promising talent.

    those in chennai dont miss.you can see a lot of rural arts that are
    vanishing even in those areas.

    all roads around the kapali temple will be blocked with stalls and
    event stages.

  • - Fantastic -

    Naavukkarasar brought back alive the boy killed by snake poison.

    Sundarar brought back the boy after years - though died as kid - to
    perform upanayanam at Avinasi.

    Thirugnanasambandar brought back Poompavai from her ashes - well grown
    up !

    No doubt Mylapore has its charm .. Let us not miss this occasion.

    thanks Venkat. regards/ sps

    very few humans are mentioned in devaram. of course the poet
    identifies himself in the last song.

    but lots of women seem to have been mentioned.

    nedumarans wife as pandimadevi in alavai pathigam( she comes in SS)
    sundarars wives paravai and sangili quite often.

    poompavai has the credit of being mentioned in each stanza o f
    sambandars pathigam. 11 times.

    mylapore vasi na summaavaa?

    Hi
    One of the organisers has informed me that roads around the temple
    will not be blocked and there will be no hindarance to traffic.
    so it makes it easier for people to reach the venue.
