This time something serious!!

After a long time, thought of adding something here. enter panni ulla pona, haa! yennoda previous kuppaikku 4 comments. yaaruda adhu pudhusa nnu patha, yaaro Rajesh aam (rombo mandai pola irukku) kevi kevi aladha koraiaya vendam niruthungannu kathi irukkaru. adappavi.. i never expected this nu nenachi, avaroda sitekku poi patha.. che che che... yenakku konjamum pudikkadha cricket pathi neraya yeludhi kaduppethi irukkaru. after going through his blogspot, i understood one thing - indha payyanukku (sorry Rajesh! :D) tamil puriyala.. adhuvum madras tamil suthama puriyala nnu! correcta?? ok.. he has really taken some pain in reading(?) my kuppai, so mannikkum vidhamaga, Rajesh, nenga.. nenga sandhosha padarathukkaga, am not writing Part II of the article (but that is not the truth - i dont know what else to be written, as usual marandhutten). (hello, devuda patta translate panrathukku ra ra patta translate panna paravalla, arthamavadhu puriyum) but blogspotnu onnu create panni adhula onnume yeludhalanna yepdi... so here we go now on to a serious side -

My brother has freeserver and has updated several things in it. Of that this particular article on the view of "Hindu religion" really attracted me.
I am sure most of the Hindus must be knowing about the 10 incarnations of Lord Vishnu. Here is a different view to it -
The objective of the stories of avatharas (incarnations) is not only to teach morals but also stories of evolution. We have so many theories that explain evolution of human beings. But in Hindu mythology, eons before, our forefathers have explained it in the form of Dasavathara.

Let us examine each of the avatharas in detail, from a completely different perspective, to understand what he was trying to say.

1. Mathsyavathara: In this avathar, Lord Vishnu is in the form of a Fish (Matsya). Long before, when Earth was much closer to the Sun, there were no possibilities of life. But when Earth was just far enough from the Sun, the first living creature evolved in Earth. And that is a Fish which lives deep beneath the Earth's surface, under the Ocean beds, where the powerful UV rays of Sun has very minimal or virtually no effect. So, according to Hindu mythology, the first living creature of the universe is a fish. Thats also how Mathsyavathara should be explained.

2. Kurmavathara: In this avathar, Lord Vishnu is in the form of a Turtle (Kurma). The process of evolution continues in Earth. Now, the fish which can only live under Earth's surface had now actually evolved into a Turtle, which can live both in the water and in the land. The process of evolution is so amazing that it had a hard shell to protect itself from the still powerful Sun rays. That way it was able to survive in the land too. Thats also how Kurmavathara should be explained.

3. Varahavathara: In this avathar, Lord Vishnu is in the form of a wild Boar (Varaha). Earth is still evolving. Now it has reached far away from the Sun that would be enough to have living beings on the surface alone. According to Hindu mythology, Boar must be one of the foremost significant land creature. Thats also how Varahavathara should be explained.

4. Narasimhavathara: In this avathar, Lord Vishnu is a Lion faced human with limbs like a Lion. Nara = Human and Simha = Lion thats how we got this name. Anyways, Earth is still evolving and this avathar depicts the transition from animals to humans. It is infact quite contradictory to Darwin's theory of humans from apes. Maybe, Narasimha is not exactly lion and human may be it was lion and ape. Anyways, the point was Earth has evolved to produce human beings. Thats also how Narasimhavathara should be explained.

5. Vamanavathara: In this avathar, Lord Vishnu is a midget. Earth has evolved and the first human being was a midget. This is in accordance to most of the Western myths. Thats also how Vamanavathara should be explained.

6. Parasuramavathara: Having explained the process of how human beings were evolved in the first 5 avathars, the next 5 avathars, explains how the mankind is going to evolve. In this avathar, Parasuram is a Brahmin (Priests or Teachers). Probably, our mythology was also trying to tell us how they have arrived at the Castisms. Now our mankind is full grown physically. This era is dedicated to Brahmins, who are basically responsible for acquiring knowledge. By acquiring knowledge, we were growing meta-physically in this era. This is an important part of our evolution. Thats also how Parasuramavathara should be explained.

7. Ramavathara: In this avathar, Lord Vishnu is a Kshathriya (Warrior). After acquiring the knowledge, warriors came into the picture to protect what we have. This era is dedicated to the warriors. This era must have brought the concept of Governments, Wars etc. This is also an important part of mankind evolution. Thats also how Ramavathara should be explained.

8. Balarama and 9. Krishnavathars: In this avathar, Lord Vishnu is a Baniya (Trader). After acquiring knowledge and protecting it, we got to use it. This era belongs to Traders. Traders used this ideal platform to move the mankind forward. This era must have brought the concept of economy. This is also an important part of our evolution. Thats also how these avatharas should be explained.

10. Kalkiavathara: According to Hindu mythology, this has not happened yet. But when it happens, Lord Vishnu will be a Sudhra (Worker). This era belongs to Sudhras, the worker bees of the human race. So, I think, we should stop cribbing about all the reservations for politically backward people as this era belongs to them, even according to the Hindu mythology.

Did he make any sense? According to me, "YES".

nyabaga maradhi


this is my first posting ever! i do not know the dos and donts. hence forgive me for any mistake i do. also that there will be a lot of tamil mixed up. and yes forgive me for all grammatical, spelling mistakes. now to the point - nyabaga maradhi.

well i am so forgetful that i forget everything. it is not that gajini surya's short term memory. but that i forget things just like that. i keep a log of "to-dos" but will forget to see that list. to remember i keep adding reminders in my office inbox and my mobile. but i seldom see the alerts.

i infact wrote a poem about this nyabagamaradhi - in english, but who remembers it now! unless i have saved it somewhere it is very difficult for me to utter it again. but i dont remember if i have saved it and where i have saved it. idhanala no one believes me that i have written the poem myself! yellam neram!

MCA exams were the best! i prepared, as usual in the last minute, for the exams. night 1 mani varaikkum, kathala 6 manike (lifela diwalikku mattum dhan avlo seekram yelundhuppen) yelundhu prepare pannikkuven. but the minute i go to the exam hall and see the question paper - everything goes blank. pakkathula irukkaravnga yellam rombo mummurama exam yeludhuvanga, nan mattum thiru thirunu ukkandhuruppen. yedhavadhu nyabagam vandha dhane yeludharathuku! invigilator vera pakkathula vandhu morachittu povanga. uncle invigilators yellam apdi panna mattange, aunties or youngsters kandippa morappanga - yen muga raasi appdi!
but ivvlo yeludhara andha pasanga velila vandha vudane keppen "yepdi exam yeludhi irukkeenga"; the reply will come - "sariyave yeludhala". vivek stylela 'adappavi, sariya yeludhadhukke full 3 hours thevai pattudha unakku, innum ne sariya yeludhi irundha??' pulambikkuven. but anga dhan vidhi velayadidum. maangu maangunu padichi yeludina pasanga yellam oothikkittanga. nanum yenga settum pass!!! first attemptlaye pass-o-pass!

engagement ana pudhusula, my then fiancee's face was not familiar for me. i had some picture in my mind that is relatively close to his looks. Gosh! it really took atleast 3 months for me to remember his face.

ippo while writing this article also, i am sitting for hours together and writing up otherwise will forget and will never get the flow.

i used to say a big "HI" to a person and then turn around to my mom or husband to ask who he or she was! indha madhiri mugam theriyama hi solli yekkachakkama arattai adichittu apram dhan i will realise - i have never met that person in my life. a similar event happened in my marriage. there was one aunty came with full enthu and said a big Hi, Congrats, etc. i thought i knew her and kept talking to her. avanga medaiya vittu keela yerangave illa. she kept advicing me on various things. Yeeks! i got stuck when she started telling a thing which is not at all a custom in our tradition. then i realised that i **really** didnt know her. then i thought my husband might have known her. i turned around to him and shocked when he asked me "who was she". then i turned around to my mother to check with her and yes u guessed it right, she also asked me "avanga maappillaikku urava" then all of us starred at her and she went down the medai with much confusions in her face. then later the next day my neice, who was standing next to me during marriage - one to get herself snapped in fotos, second to collect the gifts from me - told me that she saw that aunty in the mandap that was a different one located in upstairs.

now for this blog also, i forget the user name and password - yenna adhu rombo common dhane solreengala? hmm.. i already have created a blog spot for myself. adhu yennanne marandhu pochu.

((i only wish that my supervisor does not see this and wonder why there is always a delay from this girl on her works!))

but the thing i never forget - music tunes and lyrics of cinema songs! god knows how i am remembering them, but i do. if not the entire lyrics i remember the tune and will do sondha saahithyam to fill the gap. my generation guyz and gals tell me: have u ever heard of a song - "kaattu raani koattaiyile, kadhavugal illai" or "koovamal koovum gokilam"?? i know songs to that extent and also "suttum vizhi sudare". do i sing? yes i do. can people hear if i sing? well, that is a million dollar question!! people who have heard me humming slowly to myself has admitted that i do sing a bit, but on the other hand, vaaya thorandhu paadinaa.... my brother used to tease me with the famous song "vaadi yen kappa kelanga, padadha vaaya thorandhe". but he sings well u know. now a days he is concentrating on keyboard. he has tried out several songs in keyboard and really has done very well. now, that reminds me of the extraordinary talent that my appa and brother has got - that is changing the entire lyrics of a song and sing - more or less like a gana song. they not only change it but keep singing the changed lyric only that i will forget the original song. here i have to admit that my appa, amma, akka, anna are all really good singers. but my hubby is the only person who encourages me to sing and he is patient enough to hear me singing. thank you hubby!! :) but in this cinema songs also, when there is going to be repetitions in the lyrics, i will forget what should come when. sample songs - "chennai pattanam" - it all ends with "kasu", so i get confused; "nyabagam varudhe" - too much listings to remember. but andha nyabagam varudhe paattu is a total failure in my case - i seldom remember anything!

chinna chinna vishayam yellam nan rombo easya marandhuduven. but if there is any kadan that has to come - adhu marakkadhu yennaku. anything anyone has done - will not forget that. basica adhellam marandhu pona, yennoda maradhikku oru alagu varum. Praying god that either i recover entirely from this nyabagamaradhi or sholuld selectively forget things. ok, i have written a lot. yennoda chinna brainkku ivlo dhan yettudhu, will write another interesting article later. bye for now!
