    Dear Padmini,

    I always await fbs from you with eagerness and am never disappointed.

    This time, I read through your fb without even taking a breath, it is so thorough and informative!

    The images of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are still hovering in my line of vision, tonight will be filled with visions of the Trimurti in my dreams...

    Swamimalai has brought sheer poetry from you as befits a visit to the Kumaraswamy...

    Thanks so much, Pad dear, I simply enjoyed every word...

    Love,
    Padma

    Padma madam

    i always dreaded the cross words in Hindu...as they were very difficult....if even I tried I could hardly fill up 1 or 2 words....

    Dear SriVidya,

    Thank you for stepping in to write a sweet fb, dear!

    The Hindu crossword seems difficult in the beginning but as we go on, the clues are fairly easy to solve...

    Love,
    Padma

    Dear Padma ma'am,

    Again a beautiful one from you...from Crosswords to Spiritual touch. Only you can do it so gracefully Bow.

    I too have been engrossed with the "The Hindu" crossword. I don't think I have ever completed the whole :redface:, but have tried a lot. Yes, our vocabulary knowledge increases in that process.
    Here not too interested to do it online...I feel, the pleasure of sitting with a paper and pen in hand is something that cannot be matched, I still continue to scribble in the dailies ..what with the crosswords, sudokus and all other puzzles.

    Its so informative reading your posts and the FBs .

    Bye

    Dear Saras,

    Your words give me a boost every time!

    Like you, I also try my hand at Sudoku but some of them are pretty difficult and I am not a Maths or Logic whiz!

    Certainly sitting with the paper and pen/pencil is the best way to go about solving the CW or Sudoku...I do this in the bus, while waiting at the airport, sometimes people look at me quizzically!

    Thanks so much for the lovely fb, Saras dear..

    Love,
    Padma

    Hi Madam,
    I am new to IL.
    Hindu Crosswords were always difficult for me.
    I tried solving them a few times & decided that it wouldnt work out.
    Impressed by your post, I am seriously thinking to start afresh.
    Very good thread.

    Dear SriShakthi,

    Welcome to IL, first time I am interacting with you, I think...

    Actually, once we get the hang of the Hindu crossword, it becomes easy... so do go ahead and start afresh...

    Thank you for the nice words, dear SriShakthi,

    LnBBHs,
    Padma
