Another #Dravidian lie shattered

#Medical education in #Madras presidency in vernacular language was made possible with significant efforts from Vaidyaratna Dr G Srinivasamurti. He expertly presented a scientific approach of indigenous #medicine system to the then Govt. 1/n

@tskrishnan Really good to see how history/ inscriptions can be made reachable to all through these videos

@kevinpaulshow Brainwashed society. The VCK leader is prominent to explicity attacks Brahmins and Hindu religion, Gods. Posing with book on EVR who lead all of these in 1930s. This video clearly highlights his views

@Rk_Asvalayana this just shows how the anti-B has deeply permeated to every sphere of their life. More than a century of work planted by Brits but sustained by Dravs and no end to it. The lens thro' which these #D society, sees everything in their life seems to be only thro' anti-B

திருவள்ளுவருடைய குறள் முழுவதும் நிரம்பிக்கிடப்பது ஹிந்து மதமான சனாதனத்தின் கருத்துகள்தான். அதனால்தான் அது உலகப்பொதுமறையாக இருக்கிறது. உதாரணமாக,

கோளில் பொறியின் குணமிலவே எண்குணத்தான்
தாளை வணங்காத் தலை

இதில் சொல்லப்படும் எண்குணம், அஷ்டகுணங்கள் என்று ஹிந்துமத நூல்களில் குறிப்பிடப்படும் தன்மைகளே ஆகும். இதைத்தான் பரிமேலழகர்

சைவ ஆகமத்தில் கூறப்பட்ட எண்வகைப்பட்ட குணங்களான தன்வயத்தன் ஆதல், தூய உடம்பினன் ஆதல், இயற்கை உணர்வினன் ஆதல், முற்றும் உணர்தல், இயல்பாகவே பாசங்களின் நீங்குதல், பேர்-அருள் உடைமை, முடிவில் ஆற்றல் உடைமை, வரம்பு இல் இன்பம் உடைமை என்பன இவை என்கிறார்.

அப்பர் பெருமானும் தன் தேவாரத்தில்

பண்குணத்தார் பாடலோ டாட லோவாப்
    பரங்குன்றம் மேய பரமர் போலும்
எண்குணத்தார் எண்ணா யிரவர் போலும்
    இடைமருது மேவிய ஈச னாரே.

என்று எண்குணத்தை உடையவனாக சிவனையே பாடுகிறார்.

இந்திரன், திருமகள், உலகளந்த பெருமாள் என்று ஹிந்துக்கடவுள்களைப் பற்றித்தான் திருவள்ளுவர் குறிப்பிடுகிறார்.

ஆகவே அவருடைய ஹிந்து மத அடையாளங்களைச் சுருக்குவதுதான் தவறான ஒன்று.

Ramesh’s rise is kind of thing lot of people seem to love democrazy for. Politics remains one of the fastest vehicles for multigenerational upward mobility in India. Considering how politically smart he has been by signing paens to Ramasamy Naicker(who actually wanted his ilk to be eradicated), he will go a long way.

But there’s a deeper irony here.

One of the Periyar Dravidulu movement’s greatest strategic victories in TN has been poisoning the minds of vast sections of Tamil society that impoverished temple priests like Ramesh's father Srinivasan (earning ₹5,000 a month, living in temple quarters, with his wife travelling 90 km daily as a cook ) were the “oppressors” and "suppressors" holding society down.

That is how the movement successfully redirected anger away from entrenched political and economic power structures toward some of the most economically fragile sections of Tamil society, while packaging it as social justice.

Theosophical society was under the direct watch of DMK head to get hold of the prime land, but failed. But he managed to get the land leased out to Shiv Madar school - not sure what’s the under hand dealing there. But the main thing for common man is, it was completely closed for public to enter for sight seeing or for a walk, because of CM’s morning walk. Not sure it’s changed now, after the regime change

@tskrishnan Interesting. A tidbit here - It seems Palamaneri Brahacharanam trace their ancestry to Krishnan Raman. PS Sivasami Iyer is one of them. Src: Wiki page

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

@poetryinstone @IndinNederlands @PMOIndia @MinOfCultureGoI @sanjeevsanyal Yeah. You are doing a great service to both bringing back the idols of gods and other historical items. Great work

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

@tskrishnan @narendramodi This is a great development. Good work by those who were involved in getting this done

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

@Puyangan5 @krithikasivasw @bseshadri

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

@Puyangan5 He has mentioned this in few video interviews even earlier. He said since he has relationships with BJP senior leaders he can’t tell openly against them and break their rships

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

@bseshadri @Puyangan5 Yeah. Hope So. these are criminals in politics. So need to watch out. But a disaster for both from public sentiments

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

@bseshadri @Puyangan5 They are talking about DMK-ADMK alliance now. Check the latest news

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

Absolutely. Even you (with the level of deep work you have already accomplished) would be surprised at what is coming up from my research. Already progressed to a book full of core-content on structured anti-B activities which are now being put on record. Amazed at #Ds rigorous work in coming up with such a level of organised work to dismantle a community completely away from their motherland

[Baskar @bas_viveka]

@zeneraalstuff @bajaregurunatam Absolutely. The courage and conviction is lacking. That’s the downfall and shows why the lower classes of the community are left to struggle on their own against vultures
