Solomon lied:
Sangam LIterature tells how deeply Tamils were religious with Practice of Vedas from Tholkappiyam Days. 'Vedic Practice' is about eating meat roasted in the sacrifical fire and drinking Soma - an intoxicating liqour. Sangam Literature - The Thirukural was talked against such practices! |

What does it mean to be thamizhs- PLEASE RESPOND
I am 19 yrs old. since i was 13 i ve lived abroad. but I have a fierce pride that i am a thamizhan. and by being a thamizhan, I consider myself lucky to call such an ancient, literary tradition as my own.
But u know what. it sometimes scares me to think that hardly anyone knows about the richness of their language/or history. if you dont even know. how are you going to be proud of it and worse still PROMOTE IT. I am sick of people just raving on about the greatness of tamil. To most people it sounds as though we are all fanatics. Perhaps some people should take care of the living language thamizh too. i mean look at english which is flourishing now. greek, latin and that language sanskrit are all dead. the reason english is flourishing now is becos people speak it. chinese, japanese. they really speak it. UPDATE IT. and USE IT. why cant thamizhs do the same. unmayil thamizh meedu patru irunthal ovvoru thamizhanum, thamizhil pesa, ezhutha karkka vendum. thamizh sould be made into a modern language. shortlly speaking two doctors should converse in thamizh medically. two scientists. two engineers. just as two philosophers or religious people might... WHAT DO YOU THINK. we youngsters need some guidance from the PAZHAMS THAT grace this forum. dont we need to make varungala thamizh nadu a valamana thamizh nadu |

Knowing past History is best way to look at future. Isn't history always the past? |

Dear idli dosai,
Your intension is good. But you have to see the practical possibilities. There are more books in tamil for science and technology and medicine than any other language in india. Tamil University published tamil books for MBBS degree. But with indian political setup you cannot implement tamil as language for science studies in colleges. Employment oppurtunities should be there. Then only the learning of other arts through tamil will improve. China and Japan have different political set up. That is why tamils want to atleast history to make the tamil living. But, I think, we can preserve tamil in literature only. We have to look into the history of jews. They forgot their language migrated all over the world. Reached higher positions.Earned much.Influenced the world much. At last they revived the perished country and language after serveral years. This is the one inspiration for tamils in history. |

if you say that Rig Vedha has a "sacred" issue then you have a perspective issue. Anyway I am not here for a fight or prove any point. From my perspective everything in Rig.... looks okie...

itli thosai:
I think each of us must contribute in some measures to the progress of our language. You know what, if you are interested in Sangath Thamizh literature and scout for books in Tamilnadu, you'll get them all at cheap rates and in cheap quality of print - such is the dire straits that we have fallen into. I dont know if the passionate people who translated those epoch making works receive any Royalty at all or not. We must make it a point to buy Tamil literature books - old and new and at least make it a point to converse in Tamil within family and friends. There are enough things we can do - for instance, we both can learn to type in Tamil and communicate in our thAi mozhi. Anbudan, Thirumaal |

Friends,
Tholkappiyam to Tirukural all regard Vedas as Highest Regard and God INSpired Revealtion. Let Idiyappam stop Nonsense- Tamil Worship method Veriyattu has much bore Sacrfice Killing and drinking of Animal Bloods. If Vedas are of 2000BCE, and Sangalm TaMIL Lit. is 200CE, and Please stop your NONSENSE, I CAN Quote both, and I Want to give only what is releavent today, don't force me. MosesMOHammedSolomon |

Friend,
Tamil is one of the Oldest Languages, and now Tamils living in Abroad has more oppertunity to be in touch with Tamils, like this forum- LET US THANK ALL. Friends, Most of the SANGAM LIterature and Tirukural are available ONLINE- Downloadable- at www.tamilnet/projectmadurai Please keep knowing the past. Sangam LIterature tells how deeply Tamils were religious with Practice of Vedas from Tholkappiyam Days. Also Sangam LIt. tells how much of Civilisation level of Tamils. Knowing past History is best way to look at future. MosesMohammedSolomon. |

Friends,
Tamil Sangam Lit. has Differenciating Tamil Worship Method, mentioned in Tholkappiyam, ThiruMurugatrupadai, Silapathikaram to others, and that is called Veriyattu, and Sacrifice and eating of Bloods are perfectly mentioned, Vedic are dated to 2000BCE, and so 2000 years later still sacrifice was continued, when after Vupanishad dates 600BCE, Sacrifice in Vedic Practice was widely discontinued. Tirukural was looked as a Translation and explanation of Vedas, as per the Authors of Tiruvalluva Malai, few of which is quoted already in Tirukural Thread. MosesSolomon |

That just shows that the Brahmins of Valluvar's time were of ill conduct too! hahaha!
Read the Kural verse again - and also the verse before that = to understand what Valluvar meant! There is no casteism here! |
