Image
  AMBAI PERIA KOVIL KUMBHABHISHEKAM  Here we are , some 13500 KMS away from Ambasamudram Peria Kovil which have the KASINATHAR AND MARAGATHAMBAAL as the presiding Deities . This Temple is right on the Banks of the Tambarabarani river and at a very scenic and Picturesque location . The talks , discussions , ways and means to build a GOPURAM for this August Temple had been going on for years . Ways and means were found to fund this mammoth task which could easily run into several Crores . Humble contributions from one and all and sizeable contributions by from the Well to do with a noble Heart made this possible . We are a regular visitor to this Temple and have seen the construction of the Gopuram taking shape  at various stages over the years.  As it happened , we are now  in Toronto , Canada where we got the news of the auspicious MAHA KUBHABHISHEKAM  OF THE TEMPLE AND GOPURAM on the 25 th of March 2026 by the Temple Archagar Ramalingam whom we knew from o...

WHO ARE THEY TRYING TO FOOL - 836

Image
        WHO ARE THEY TRYING TO FOOL  What does a cursory glance at the picture below suggest ?  The elite members of the Party High command are engaged in a serious discussion to find ways and means to stop the entry of the Fascist NDA/ BJP with the AIADMK in tow to set their foot in the DRAVIDA Tamilnadu in the upcoming Assembly Elections which is just around the corner . That they were all for giving the youth and younger members a say in the Party's Decision Making firmament seems to have been conveniently forgotten . I say this because a second glance at the picture will confirm that with the exception of one or two all are well past their middle age , with most in their late sixties and middle  seventies . A few who tilt the scales in their  early eighties are also  no surprise . A relook again at the picture and you can see all the esteemed members in JET BLACK HAIR with not a strand of Grey Hair on their head . A couple of them also sp...

POOVANNAN, PONNUTHAYI,PAASIYUR -835

Image
    ANSWER IS WITH THE UNITED NATIONS  This is a story about the fisherman Poovannan who was staying with his aged Grandmother Ponnuthayi at the small fishing hamlet of Paasiyur in rural Pandiyanadu.  This coastal village is just 80 KMS from my own place Agasthiarpatty . Ponnuthayi had a serious wound on her leg which refused to heal inspite of all the efforts of Poovannan. The wound seemed to be gathering puss and spreading with each passing day . Total limb amputation if left untreated soon was an unpleasant possibility. This was when he consented to listen to his best friend Kadir and approach Mayan , the self styled local village Quack . The Quack Mayan was quick to offer a solution . Washing the wound with a bucket of Seawater for a fortnight three times a day would surely heal the wound completely. The Salt and other minerals present in the Seawater would have the power to bring about  a fast healing effect .  Poovannan was delighted , at last a solut...

WINTER OF YOUR LIFE - 834

Image
  TODAY IS THE YOUNGEST THAT YOU ARE           EVER GOING TO BE IN YOUR LIFETIME                         *THE  WINTER IS JUST SETTING IN* You know ... time has a way of moving too quickly and catching you unaware at most inconvenient times . It seems just yesterday that I was a young, just married young man embarking on my new life with my mate. Yet in a way, it seems like eons ago, and I wonder where all the years went. I know that I lived them all. I have glimpses of how it was back then with  all my hopes and dreams. But, here it is... the *back nine* of my life and it catches me by a huge surprise...How did I ever get here so fast? Where did all the years  and where did my youth go? I remember seeing older people through the years and thinking that these older people were years away from me and that I was only on the first hole and the back nine in this game of Gol...

PLEASANT MEMORIES - 833

Image
                  PLEASANT MEMORIES  Lot of pleasant memories in the post  . A brick Layers Son with a Mother who supplements the monthly income as a Tailor clearing the Tough  UPSC Exam is awesome .  That he cleared it from a place called Vickramasingapuram which has been my home for the last 50 years plus the mention of Thiruvalluvar College and Papanasam Labour Welfare School is even more special . Anoobala my daughter  too is a product from both these institutions.  Although I am not in tune with most of the schemes of the ruling dispensation, NAAM MUDALVAR seems to be helpful to many even from the rural background . Thumbs up for the effort . Congrats Bharathi .

T 20 World Champs - Gift To the Nation- 832

Image
                  T 20 WORLD CUP WINNER          PROUD MOMENT FOR THE NATION  India's journey in the Current ICC WORLD CUP  T 20  Champion has been nothing short of Phenomenal . To end up losing only one Match from the League Stage till the Final spoke volumes of their intent . Batting was excellent , someone or the other took up the Gauntlet when it mattered the most . Sanju Samson joining the team after being picked up only during  the business end of the Championship made a huge difference  which ended up in he being chosen as the Player of the Tournament and the chief architect of our fortunes . Contributions by Ishan Kishan , Hardik Pandya , Shivam Dubey , Tilak Verma and to a smaller but useful contributions by SKY , Axar Patel and Abhishek Sharma in the final all went on to make the Final almost a one sided contest. The performance of the bowlers was equally astounding. Jasprit Burmah b...
