MYTH & HISTORY
  • Kannappan lead has provided several vital details :

    1. Vijay posted a lovely Nayanmar link... of subramanian .. which is a great asset of a link..thanks Vijay.

    2. Dr. Nalini's varalaaru.com article reposted... informative.

    3. Of course - comparable rare sculptures.. of Kannappa

    4. Vairam's :: Dr. Zvelebil observations..

    5. Ravi...seeing Muruga in everything... wonderful.

    6. Sampath Sir ... very nicely chipped in and put very interesting details.. thanks Sir...

    The variation between Myth and History is only Graded .. and does not seem to be absolute .. it remains so till proved otherwise.

    Several topics came under scanner :: How Ganasa became "family " man ?

    spill over from Sangam literature to Harappa also found in between..

    Concise study is being done... or such study is only continuous process... giving us inputs..

    Whether sangam talks of siva... is the same Alamarselvan was Siva ?

    How did Kotraivai become soft Uma and married Siva ?

    Was Karthik of North is our Kumarakkadavul @ Muruga ? How and when did fusion take place ?

    Pasupathi .. Head of Cattles ? Is not Lord Krishna ? then how come Siva ?

    In these what is Myth and what is History ?

    History is discounted if supported only by Literature !!

    Lord of details of Lord Krishna remained so.... till Dwaraka underwater expeditions pointed out details tallying with Literature too ..

    I too agree with you Sir.

    " History, when proved, is a small or a portion myth; and, when validated history is proved false, it again becomes a myth "
