Thenkachi Ko.Swaminathan- about listening

Some of my friends questioned me about my caption (Enjoy the sense of Listening) under my blog's name.
Their doubt was in the word 'Listening'.They said that instead of the word Listening, I should use the word 'hearing'. But my opinion is..Hearing is like just passing by. On other hand, Listening is like analysing the matter. Now, there is a lot of difference. Isn't it?

But, If I say this, most of the people may not accept.Let us listen to what our favourite Thenkachi Ko.Swaminathan(Indru oru Thagaval,All aindia Radio and Sun tv fame) said. He explains the what hearing and listening are and the difference between these. We can understand clearly how much important and valuable listening  is.

He says about the steps in listening.

1. Hearing
2. understanding and
3. feedback.

So,hearing is the first step in listening. But in further,we should analyse the matter we heard.
Then we have to convey this to another person. This step shows us how clearly we observed the message.

And in the end he finishes the session as usual with a short but sweet joke .


Listen to Thenkachi Ko. Swaminathan ayya's speech about listening..
And Enjoy ur sense of Listening always..

Vanga Pesalam -Bharathy Baskar and Raja

"Vanga Pesalam" is a program which is being telecasted on Sun Tv  on weekdays after morning news session. This is a very informative and interesting two member discussion session. Solomon Pappaiya Pattimandram fame Ms.Bharathi bhaskar and Mr.Raja are the two  members participating in the discussion . Both are favourite pattimandram speakers of many people and ofcourse, I am not an exception for this.
             They speak about many useful topics everyday. All are useful ones. The discussion is a very decent one and the most important matter is, it is politics free(always). In some topics, they fight fiercely with each other. In some other topics, they agree with each other. In both cases, we can enjoy their talks.
            
             The reason why I like this is, it is not like talking according to a script which someone has written and rendered to them. It is like when two friends talk about a topic. So natural and so impressive..

              In this discussion ,they talk about Tamil language and about it being hesitated by the younger generation to speak. Everybody should love their mother tongue. Especially, we Tamilians should feel proud to have such a great language as our mother tongue. But the situation is almost upside down . Isn't it? We all should take responsibility for saving our Tamil by teaching it to our children. Now , listen to the discussion and enjoy..
