Thenkachi Ko Swaminathan explaining Thirukural

Thirukkural is the Tamil  book written by the great sage "Thiruvalluvar". He is known as the "Deiva pulavar " and Thirukkural is known as the " ulaga podhumarai" (the common book to the whole world). Thirukkural is the book which is translated in most languages of the world.

Thirukkural consists of 1330 kurals which are divided into 133 adigaarams..
Each adhigaaram(division) contains 10 kurals 133*10  and hence 1330.
Each 10 explains about a topic like charity, love, family life, public life etc..
Each thirukkural contains just 2 lines ...just 7 words..
With just 7 words, he explains very great things.. that's the greatness of Thirukkural..

Always, we've heard only Solomon Popaiya saying meanings for Thirukkural(Sun tv). Even Actor Vivek told a comedy in a film " Vivek :Thirukkuralai ezhudhinadhu yaarnu theriyuma?... Boy : enaku theriyum..Solomon Popaiya "  Have u heard Thenkachi Ko Swaminathan (Indru Oru Thagaval fame)  explaining Thirukural..? Feel the difference here. Here

This one is in the adhigaaram  தெரிந்து செயல் வகை  - deliberation before action

Thenkachi explains the Kural  

                   நன்றாற்ற  லுள்ளுந்  தவறுண்   டவரவர்
              பண்பறிந்  தாற்றார்க்  கடை

In English 

           " Attune the deeds to habitude
             Or even good leads to evil feud " 
 
In a common man's words  
                 
   " Indha kaalathula udhavi seiyum podhu kooda  romba jaakiradhaya seiyanum..
     illaina adhu namakae danger aahidumnu solraanga.."

A very apt kural for this period ( personal experiencela pulambaraenu ninaikaadheenga..:)) Thenkachi speaks about thiruvalluvar and the thirukural in his own style.. cracking jokes and examples..

Just listen to it  , learn the meaning of the kural and enjoy...

Onnam padi eduthu- Tamil folk song

This song is sung by Vijayalakshmi Navaneethakrishnan and team . This song starts with the line "Senthil Vadivelavarai". So, those who search for this song with the words "onnam padi eduthu"  miss this one thinking that this is a different one. We could have heard this song few years back in school and college culturals. But it has become rare.

Coming to the song.. This is a kummi song.
On hearing the song we can feel the increase of the speed.  It has 8 padis..like onnam padi eduthu, rendam padi eduthu, moonam padi eduthu... like this it goes upto ezham padi eduthu..
For each and every padi, the speed of the song increases. Listen to the ezham padi eduthu & ettam padi eduthu. U cant imagine ,how the singers sang the words in such a high speed ..that too without a single mistake. Many of us cant say a tongue twister in half the speed of this song ..Wow..this is amazing..
Mostly the stanza is the same. But with some changes.. For example, for onnam padi eduthu she sings" ora orama" and for rendam padi, rathina kiliya.. and like this it goes on..

It contains a finishing touch too. The finishing stanza is a very cute one.That's part i like the most. It is like saying "Ma, our hands are aching because of dancing and clapping hands(that's kummi). we are all so tired. we have to take rest. So give us permission to take leave." to Mariamman the goddess. Isn't so nice?
This is the beauty of the Tamil culture. We dont separate ourselves from the God. God is like our mother, Father and a good friend. In all the tamil folk devotional songs we can feel this very well.

Listen to the song and enjoy the song..
As always cherish our Tamil Tradition..
