Ponniyin Selvan Varalaatru Peravai

Dear Vijay,

According to Dr. Kudavoil himself - this is his Monumental work.

when he attended the REACH meet in Chimdabaram - he showed the COVER which is being designed.. very impressive.

Swami Dhayanandha - now in Haridwar - is reaching Thanjai just for this book release and will return immediately again.

Every single sculpture in the big temple is being described.

Look at our fortune ::

1. Pulavar Mahadevan has already published the Big temple inscriptions - including the SI volumes + found subsequently.

2. Big temple paintings on the Cards by ASI

3. Big temple Sculptures - Rajarajeswaram - by Dr. Kudavoil in Tamil.

4. Rajarajeswaram in English - more Conceptual - is being published by Dr. Nagaswamy within 3 - 4 months.

5. Rajarajeswaram B Venkataraman s/o Legend SRB is already avl

6. French Indology Institute has already brought out a volume on 3 UNESCO temples ( Rajarajeswaram - GKC - DArasuram) - with intricate sketches etc.,

7. There are books written & published by several others also re this temple including by some ASI personnel.

I think within next 3 - 4 months - we will be having everything we wanted to know re Rajajeswaram temple.
