.... As for your urge for learning, I can say that, if you attempt to read Divya prabandam, it would be very hard. To make anything by-heart, will not be feasible.

Many years ago I expressed the same sentiments to my grandfather. He admonished me saying if you have High School level Tamil it will come if you try. I must say he was right. Dhivya Prabhandam is much more accessible to ordinary people than any sanskrit text.

Though SVs hold Veda as aupuresheya and inerrant, they eulogize DP as superior even to vedas for many reasons, among them are (i) it is in Tamil, not prohibited to any varna like the Vedas, and (ii) it is only about moksham, nothing else.

So, if you are inclined to these beliefs, do take DP up, it will come to you with time, it did to me. Even now I enjoy the literary beauty. Just take a look at Andal's Thiruppavai, it is perfect in every way literary, so much so, SVs revere it as the seed of all Vedas, "வேதமனைத்துக்கும் வித்தாகும் கோதைத் தமிழ்".

Cheers!

Dear Mr. Rangarajan:

Warm Welcome to this site.

hi, I am Rangarajan, an Iyengar from Srirangam, Tiruchirapalli Dist, Tamil Nadu. I was brought up in Thane Dist, of Maharashtra. I am also a Bhajanist performing Namasankeertanam.​

I am very thrilled to note that you are a Bhajanist specialized in Namasankeetanam. There are many ardent fans of Sankeerthanam in this site, you may want to check out the music thread to read further. In fact, there are special threads with schedules of Yearly Alangudi Bhajans that are conducted in Feb. I believe the schedule for Feb 12 is already posted and these threads also include some exciting Utube links of previous years' events.

I personally have been listening to Divyanama sankeerthanam, ashtapathis and radha kalyanam tradition bhajans from childhood and would like to collect a library (DVD's and CD's) of great bhajan performers. If you could guide me with some of the great names of yester years and current (although I know some of them) it would be great. You may want to start your own thread under 'Music' if you so please.

Welcome again....

I am interested to know about online music classes. I would appreciate if you could please send me a Private Message with details.

Thank you.

I have an old original Carnatic music collection with the real "Greats" of carnatic music. Starting from SG Kitappa and Madurai Mani, Ariyakudi etc. I really don't know If you would call KBS a doyen of Carnatic music too. I never found the original music pieces in Chennai. Much as I searched I could never find the rare carnatic music in Chennai. Of all places I found most of my music in Calcutta, where you have the headquarters of HMV and a large TamBram community.

Shri Natarajan,

Welcome to this Forum. You will get a lot of knowledge and information from the archives here on religion. But when you say "self-knowledge", I believe you are referring to what is known in traditional parlance as Atmavidyaa. Well we have some very devoted and knowledgable people like Shri Saidevo, tks, etc., here. There is a thread currently also. Please see here.

Hope to benefit from your participation in the forum for many many years.
