Dear Idiappam,

Ithartku thaana 'Mahweshwar bhaktha's -63 nayanmarkal -nu oru thread aarampichuvaichen, apuram, y open a new thread?

That thread is to talk about the biographies of the 63 Nayanmarkal and perhaps some of thier works - if any.

Here we are going to takle Thevarams only - with relavant quotes from the Thevarams themselves. For example - when it comes to 'importance of education' we can see that Appar was the foremost in stressing that --

"kallAthAr manath thaNukak kadavuL..." 6.84.8.

Other verses from the thevarams may be quoted.

On women of the Thevaram times:
They were educated, lived with familes, went around with their husbands etc... says Sambandar
kazhal malku panthodammaanai moondrin..
..... kaRRavar siRRidai kanni maargal. 1.4.2

So, I hope to see more such lines from the Thevarams, telling us more about 'the times' - the Historical Perspective.
