Even few went on to say that Marai or Vetham or Ooththu in Tholkappiyam, Sangam-Kural – Manimekhalai could be some Non Existent Tamil Vedams etc., and The Missionary Motived Pavanar had to himself has to admit-

Hindus believe in many things including deities. They also believe in maharishis. What evidence is there to say that Maharishis existed? A mere mention of their name in some religious book. Similarly, the names of four Tamil vedas are mentioned in Tamil literature. So we can believe the statement, just like you believe in the existence of those rishis because of some statement in some religious book.

There are several reasons why we are able to believe that maRai in Tolkappiyam does not refer to the Arya Vedas. Before I enumerate them once again for you,please let me know your answer to the paragraph in this posting in red.
