Amen to that Malathi. As long as people do not have that influence they are good, I had seen Avvaiyar with my 10 year old and she was totally involved in the movie, I could not believe it but yes she was very keenly into the movie!!! The side to t…

I differ here. Noting into history is something, but totally changing the cultural scene is not correct. Ex: in 300, Xerxes was shown as a cruel tyrant but that was acceptable compared to cannibalism of Cholas. Menelaus again was not portrayed su…

Got it. Interesting fact though, taking link back to the jains rituals discussion, ilanko adigal being a jain, the last rites here to be done by the person who has a child (keeping aside the kanagi let her). Another question I had on this rites is…

Malathi: am not sure how this conclusion was made on Madhavi. I am no expert on these books, but whatever I read and cross referenced - madhavi was no less than Kannagi. Infact, I faintly remember a debate (have to search for the links) on why Mad…

If I were to explain this in simple terms: Subject yourself as a 3rd person observing what your 2nd person does. Eliminating the feeling of connectivity and bringing to yourself the art of discrimination in every act. You become the arrow and the y…

is that not a deal for the spouse, a thorn studded path to immortality ? Anyone who treads the path of being a rebel (out of box thinkers) has this situation for their family. Infact, I pity Baarathiyar during his last years where he was forced to m…
