The Tamil Language and the Tamil Civilization have wisdom, legacy and invaluable treasures to cherish and be proud of for many generations to come. The Tamil ancestors were thoughtful and pioneers in many aspects; they taught the world through their literary works. The Tamil language is versatile, flexible and rich, that helped them convey the most complex, subtle and interesting forms of ideas, and philosophies.
This book is an attempt to bring forth such glorious treasures...
"India's future lies in the past. Not in the recent past but remote past." said Sadhguru Sivanandamurthy. So, the Tamil's future too relies on past when Nayanmars, Azhwars, Great Sidhdhas and Tiruvalluvar who gave us for everything we need till the end of world. While people in the present age talking more on glory of Tamil language actually do not understand the real meaning of what they say. The glory is always there for every language. Every race has got their glorious past. But just saying those past without clarifying what the elders told in their verses is just utter waste. You should understand the meaning of Tirukkural; understand the meaning of Thirumurai, Dhivyaprabhandams; and many classical works they have written and sang for the sake of future generations of years to come. If we do not understand the minimum basic on these Tamil classical works, according to me, the life offered to us by God as human beings, is just waste.
I got drawn towards Tamil Literature when my father told an analogy of a good deed done without expecting a return in favour will definitely provide a benefit in the future - (615 600TL 601 தலையாலே தான் தருதலால் - Thaalunda Neerai Thalaiyaalae Thaan Tharuthalaal) - Like the coconut tree that returns the benefit, holding on its head, for the water that is poured on its feet. It is a verse from Avvaiyar's Moodhurai. It fascinated me on how a noble thought of deed can be explained in such a succinct, yet, effective way. I started exploring the works of Avvaiyar and I am proud that Tamil people were forerunners in educating women and respecting them for their knowledge way before the rest of the world did.
