Big temple in danger????
I have signed it too and written some comments. I urge all our members to do the same. At present there are only 255 signatories. If all our members sign, it would be atleast 1580+. Of course, no pressures from my side. Those who love our PS and …

Creating Record?
Dear Sampath, Yes you are right. I realise it now. Thanks for correcting me. Let me just use the word "trend" instead of "jinx".

Damage to Big Temple ?? Does somebody have info ?
All, Any information about this news?? Is the REACH foundation aware of this. I am surprised at the silence of our members (that includes me, until now) on this issue. The builder of this Temple brought us all together, isn't it? Chandra S…

Seri, kozhappardhunnu vandhaachu, naan innum konjam kozhapparen..... For the story line, Azhwars side with Valmiki's version more. But when it comes to singing about the Tamizhar marabu, Azhwars and Kamban takes the same side. In fact, even …

Malathi, I am not putting down the possibilities of all those adders. What I am only saying is that "the probability of something getting added to the original is only as good as the probability of not getting tampered".

Dear Ravi Nichayama Kozhappala.... Romba theLivaavE solliyirukkeenga. You are absolutely right. Nammazhwar states that neer numadhu enRivai vEr mudhal mAitthu, iRai sErmin uyirkku, adhan nEr niRai illE. Azhwar talks about getting rid of the &…

Dear Madhu, Yes, indeed the topic is diverted. In fact even SPS sir asked to changed the subject line to suitably reflect the topic being discussed. Thanks for the reminder. But I would like to say something about the discussions. 1. Your opini…

Dear Satish, I am a little confused here. When you say the Atma is Free, what do you mean to say? Is it free from the Karmic Bondage or is it free to act on its own. Apart from the above doubt, the other things what you have said are very valid…

Dear Atpu, Just my two cents worth. But before that a Caveat: As said earlier, this is based on philosophies of one particular sect. Does not necessarily mean that this is the only correct view. It still could be, from a human point of view but…

Sathish, Very rational analysis. In fact I have heard it (Kanchi Periyava's stance) too. That is true. The very reason the Vedas were called Sruthi is just because of the fact that they were only Heard for by- hearting. I realised this myse…

Dear Malathi (Hope you are happy now!!!) Call it Supreme Being or Supreme Energy - (thamar ugandhadhu eppEr maRRappEr - Poigai Azhwar) Call it as existant or non-existant - (uLan alan enil avan aruvam - Nammazhwar) This is the beauty of Hinduism…

Vijay, I think you missed my point. Remember the "mAl" is different from the "mAL" in "perumAL". I will check the etymology for the word "perumAL". To my knowledge, Azhwars did not use the word "perum…

Dear Vijay, Perumal is different. It is actually spelled, transliterated, perumAL. The "L" is as in "vaLLi". "mAl" has two meanings. 1. Biggest 2. mayakkuvadhu. remember the pAsuram "mAl seigindra mAl, Ar kAN…

Dear Ravi, Very valid question. But I believe, as Vyasa was having the complete knowledge of whatever was happening, it is he who documented even Gita. Other possibilities, like Arjuna or Sanjaya are ruled out. And no need to expect Dridharast…

Dear Sampath, But Markandeya is definitely considered a Chiranjeevi. So... looks like only my count is wrong, considering the sloka indicated by you. As for "sathyaha" as it could not be Markandeya, it should only mean "Verily&quo…
