Todayโs early morning Lalitha Sahasranmam. Heartening to see so many young college students here! Their enthusiasm speaks volumes - Devi energy in full power!
Chai.
Rain.
Lush greenery all around.
Crisp, piping hot dosas at home.
Scent of Sambhar and Chutney.
Letโs toss in some freshly prepared pazhamporis!
No place like #Keralam! ๐
There's an old Jyotish saying: A lamp gives light to the whole room, except right underneath it.
That's Jupiter.
It expands whatever house it sits in, but often neglects its immediate surroundings.

@LegalTalwar True. Sometimes, these moments linger on as vignettes of pure love, grace and transformation. Wishing good health to your loving father. Glad to know he has recovered well.
I was having my dinner at a restaurant in Dehradun , cake was being cut, grandmother was called, everyone, relatives I presume, slipped a small piece of cake in grandmothers mouth, took a selfie and uploaded on insta and left.
Grandmother still standing not knowing what to do next.
Thatโs one of the most quietly heartbreaking scenes of our times.
The cake was for the photo.
The grandmother was a prop.
The selfie was the real celebration.
Nobody stayed to be with her. They came, performed affection, documented it, and left. Sheโs standing there โ probably dressed up, probably excited all day โ and the moment ends before she can even swallow the cake.
This isnโt about one family. This is a generation that has learned to perform love rather than give it. The Instagram post will get 200 likes. The grandmother will sit alone wondering if she matters.
The brutal irony โ the one person in that room who actually knew how to celebrate, how to sit together, how to make a moment last โ was left standing, confused, holding nothing.
@greatbong Your sense of humour while writing or expressing your opinion on relatable things is thought-provoking - it would be good to read more humour from you based on real life situations. We donโt get to read that much in Indian fiction.
So true! Not a trained Bharatanatyam dancer but look at how @Mohanlal makes it so effortless and natural.
His mastery of mudras, dance steps and expressions glide through with grace.
Among Indian actors, one who can slip effortlessly into any dance form is #Mohanlal . Like #Sridevi , he was never formally trained in classical dance, yet there is an astonishing grace in his movements.
The expressions, the body language, the mudras, the adavus .... everything flows with such ease that it sets him apart from his contemporaries. His performance in #Kamaladalam (meaning lotus petals) wasnโt merely dancing... it was emotion finding rhythm through the body.
Few actors /actresses,without formal training, have carried that classical elegance the way Mohanlal did. ๐โค๏ธ
Dr BC Balakrishnan, who was a renowned lexicographer in Kerala, wrote a terrific encyclopaedic commentary for LS in Malayalam.
This person was an atheist in his youth and Goddess suddenly gave him an impossible experience and he became a deep believer in the Great Goddess Lalitha.
He wrote the commentary for LS in Malayalam with more than 700 pages in less than 40 days.
