there are some cardinal rules in archeology.

==================
Very much in agreement.
==================
like we had a thread in this group on the existence of karuvuuraar
during rrc’s time. because it says he existed in history books people
wanted to sensationalise it and said its wrong.
===================
KARUVURAR has described the Big temple as “PORGIRI” !
——————————————————-
the theory put forward was that since he had sung about thirubuvanam
built 200 years later) he could not have co existed with rrc.

Dear SPS/Ram
One more source which you can try is

Thenindhiya archakar sangam
11, Thambu chetti st
Madras-1

Not sure if this body exists still, but if it does you may get a copy

Dear SB sir,

Excellent!!

This perfectly justifies the title ‘Seyal Puyal Sundar
(SPS)’.

This is what we were waiting for. Lets get a copy and
go through.

Both your mail and comment to our article were in
highly matured way with carefully chosen words. People
should learn this from you.

========================
Dear Kamal,

Hv not got the copy in hand. Getting by Monday. But am told it is in
Grandha lipi.. Poorva Baagam by Sivacharyas Association.
Out of 30 Sargas of which about 9 is published in this Baagam (Part).
Hunt is on to locate another Baagam also.

Another interesting thing :

Since yesterday 31.08, a Seminar is in session in Saraswathi Mahal
Library, Thanjavur : KOILRKALAI AND AAGAMAS .. Concluding tmrw.

Dr. Nagaswamy, Ganapathy Sthapathy, Dr. Sathiamurthy, French Institute
Pondy and Scholars from Northern States are participating .. Requested
a couple of visitors to bring up Thanjai temple construction in
cofirmity with specific Aagama..

Could not attend personally though tried. Work pressure. Wl post
further details when available.

Hi SPS,

is this Ganapathy stapathy, the same person who resides in Thiruvanmiyur and has measured the pyramids of south america? If we have members in thanjai, we should definitely meet him and get inputs for similarities in dimensions and constructions with vaastu.. and our temples.

snandaakumar said 5 years, 8 months ago:

Hi SPS & others,

Can someone meet Mr.Ganapathy sthapathy and collect his views on the Mexican Pyramids and how their structure and architecture related to indian structures(specifically temples & palaces). It would be very interesting to learn as to how two civilizations(which may not have had contact at all) have such specific construction techniques employed to accurate plan and detail. If the person interviewing Mr.Ganapathy sthapathy are vastu-knowledgeable(as I am not) it would be great use to get an article published.

I am not visiting chennai till the Pooja holidays and hence I am requesting people(with Vaastu knowledge – at least basics) to take up this activity.

Atlast SPS got the copy of Magudagamam. We all got the book, flipped
through the pages and returned it back to him because everything was
in some unrecognizable characters for us.

Seyal Puyal Sundar….good name Kamal.

I am just wondering a great coincidence…as soon as the thread
started, SPS got some lead and immediately Ram could locate the
sites selling the book which varalaaru team and Dr.Kkvn could not
locate for more than 2 years. Great isnt it?

Satish

Dear Satish,

>>>>>Ram could locate the

Just a clarification. It was Dr.Kkvn, who told me that a fellow scholar at RMCHR, Ms. Lalithambal had found some links to Mahudagamam in the internet (several months back) but that lead them no-where. I googled again and I found the same links. I did try calling the Varanasi number and the person in charge of the publications division was gone on vacation. I just thought i would share the link in the group, so that others can pester the publishers too.

At the end of the day, we are thrilled to know that SPS has a copy of Mahudagamam. Eagerly waiting to know more on the contents and its connection with Rajarajeeswaram.

Dear Ram,

The book is avl with any Senior Sivacharya.
Published in Grantha lipi.
Requested some one from Kapali temple to translate ..
Let us wait.

In Saraswathi Mahal it appears a record (of foreign research Scholar -
about 100 yrs back ) shows that Big temple is in conformity to
Mahudagamam. …

Trying to get this connection also.

Will post more details when avaiable.

Excellent sir. Lot of info are coming out, which didnt happen for
past 12 years. We really feel happy that varalaaru.com helped to dig
it further.

Thanks
