  • HI
    attended Dr. Nagaswamy's power point presentation

    some photos were stunning
    but then he too falls in the all too familiar trap of etymological similarities between cultures
    so much like our chola pass
    for example he terms angkor wat name as arising from 'nagar vastu'
    he also mentioned kamboji raga as having originated there.
    possibilites there but probability low.
    in this forum we have discussed several other kambojas even upto vengi.

    a good part of his lecture was on similar names between india and cambodia

    i was expecting more on the karikal ammaiyar statues which are predominant there proving a link between tamil culture and kampuchea.

  • Dear Venkat,

    2 years back - in the South Asian History Conference in Singapore - which Kudavoil and Dr, RN attended, he presented a paper related to Pallava- Tamilnadu - Cambodia CULTURAL connections ..

    including recitation of Thevaram..
    Thiruppavai..
    Crowning of the Kings by Pallava priests... etc. etc.

    due to paucity of time, he did not go into so many details..

    He called me later this night and conveyed his thanks to you, Muruganandam and Vijay for having attended.

    regards / sps

  • Sir

    Is there any chance for us to read Dr.RN's presentation he made 2 years ago.
  • That is a very good idea dear Prabu.

    Dear Thiru,

    Let us explore the possibility of keeping the mobile numbers of all the members in CHENNAI - CHINGLEPUT- KANCHI CIRCLE (surrounding).

    We can handle this through bulk- SMS.

    Pls help storing the data on these lines.

    Likewise Banglore Circle.

    Coimbatore Circle.

    Trichy / Thanjavur Circle.

    Madurai Circle.

    will do for the timebeing.

  • I have photographed his slides when the same presentation he gave for Tamil
    Heritage at T.Nagar. But don't know whether I can publish it!
  • Dear Satheesh,

    that is good idea.

    I will speak to him and find out so that you can publish them in his atamilartsacademy and provide a link later.

    regards /. sps
