    Gracious Sridhar,

    It is said that where Mahalakshmi abodes, grace abodes. Suddenly with your Thiruppavai postings, all of IL is filled with divine grace. Thank you. A simple word that conveys a lot of gratitude, devotion and awe towards the poet and Her designated translator, conveyor of good tidings!! The voice enchants as always. Saw someone referring to it as strong, may I add deep in devotion!!

    As Kamla says, in the real world, we would not address you as 'gracious' Sridhar. To me that extends to the virtual world also. Just to assure you, that any sarcasm you might sense in the address is not directed at you.

    I collected some more info on Andal's kili. Will post it. Am missing Manju Reddy who was a good respondent in temple talk.

    regards
    Vidya

    Thanks Vidya!

    Gracious Vidya,

    Thanks for the graceful post. Thanks for the nice words you have about my post, about my voice.

    Aandals sharanagathi is complete, perfect and total. Our aim in reading her beautiful work is to attain that kind of perfection in sharanagati. As I say this I am fully aware that to attain a millionth part of her devotion, it may take a million life times. It is still worth the while to start it now.

    We are in a religious thread, Vidya. And while here we should not miss anybody but god. Manju had a role to play, played that role and went away. She, like each one of us is an instrument in God's hand, to fulfill a divine purpose.

    What purpose did she fulfill, where did she go and when or whether she will be back - it is not given to us to ask these questions.

    Lets devote that time in learning one more Aandal's paasuram.

    Thanks once again.

    regards,
    sridhar

    Dear Teja,

    Another beautiful picture! Thank you. Actually, I look forward to your pictures as much as Varalotti's translations. In magazines like Vikatan, they announce serial novels by a famous author and say that the characters will come alive with pictures by another great artist. Eg: Sivasankari-Jayraj. Varalotti and you are quite a team like that.Thanks,Teja.

    regards
    Vidya

    Vidya,
    But I saw that people are not interested in this. So I just waited till somebody found out. And there's your mail.
    Let me post this time. But if people are not interested let me keep out of this.
    thanks,
    sridhar
