In his cool, casual plesant way, Dr. Kalaikkovan has used every second of his telecast to send the message :: How Cherishable and preservable is our Culture and what are the sources of information and what we should look for in temples - and why temples ? etc..
How did he take interest in History - big temple outlines - Valanchuzhi outlines - (before 8 am news) and then bringing out of Varalaaru Print issues and then talked about Varalaaru.com e issues.
Recognished and paid rich Tributes to youngsters - computer literates - for showing interest in Culture - learning and attaining higher levels in Research re varalaaru.com.
How History plays vital role - NOT CARBAGE OF THE PAST - but Vibrant with valuable forgotton informations in shaping up individually and as a Society!
Are we aware of the Pride of our Architecture? How did Pallavas project - the early Chozhas - Midvl Chozhas!
For a Scholar of Dr, Kalaikkovan's stature, the time capsule was very short to express - yet he made best use for our beneifts.
We are fortunate to share our views and ideas with such learned Scholars.
I think we should reciprocate through Varalaaru.com issue atleast.
Dr.Kalaikovan also spoke about basics of historical reasearch, like from where to start?, how to go about?, What all books available on buildings and sculptures etc. He added on how history should be approched so that it can be benificial to the society.
He used only one english word 'cycle'. He presented it in a very nice manner.(Kaviri vellam pol tamil karai purandu odiyadhu). I appreciate the way he used tamil words for even techinical terms. Present day's youth should follow the foot steps of Dr.KKvn for this.
I have met Dr.KKvn when i was in my early school days as an opthalmist in Trichy. I am staying abroad now and after joining this group i came to know about Dr.KKvn's contribution to History. Thanks to our group member for informing about the telecast.
