@VJ – I am missing the ‘Like’ option here

Whats the ‘brhamahatti dosha’ of the temple ? Am I missing something ? I know thiruvidaimaruthur story on it – but first time hearing on Big T.

Agreed, VJ

Wonder how it finds a space around here!

Legends and reality could be quite different.

Interesting read – thanks Saurabh.

if you think as ‘Idol ‘ – yes…
Deivam endral athu deivam.
Once the ‘God’ is moved out of the energy incantation spot, it becomes a stone, then it does not matter if its on the front yard or a library or museum.

I used to be emotional on this earlier but it makes more sense to keep them there as such, if it was not taken in the past few years.
Its the philosophy that is critical, I know that british museum shows the […]

I have read it @ kaumaram – still that is 4 blind men with an elephant.
I believe the closest you can get to Karthikeya is via Aatrupadai / thirupugazh – anubuthi.

How you see him is described in Adhala sedhanar […]

Every one is compared to Karthikeya
He is such a personality rite
He falls as the central constitution of e=mc2 (C being him)
Well… legends apart, most of the Skanda / karthikeya is a spiritual […]
