Pranam Few errors corrected: Q5 I read on Facebook recently that it is part of Smd Bhagavatham and Uddava Geetha. Uddhava the old friend of Krishna like Kuchela, who never so far asked anything to GHod being with HIM. Krishna says I am leaving the earth so you ask for something. But Uddava needs certain clarifications. Uddava asks Krishna if you are a dharmist; if so in the dice game Dharma alone should have won but how come Saguni?. Krishna replied that only dharmam won. The better able person alone shall win. And Saguni had better ability than Dharma so it was correct that Saguni won. There is another line of thinking here. To the same question when raised, Krishna answered that Saguni was an expert; KIng duryodhana and king dharma are players; and law permits any one to play on behalf of the King; Duryodana wisely chose Saguni; had the King Dharma called me theer in a second I would have played on behalf of Dharma and won; even till draupadi lost haer saree held I was not invited; rather I was not at all remembered; so all the events occurred.
Q6 One has to read Krishna emissary in Mahabharata before writing something else as answer; even in Panchali sabatham Bharathi flows in words in this situation. It was the love of earth of duryodhana that brought him down as Ravana was done with the desires of women. A7 There were many more described in the Garuda Purana horrible than this. And horror ridden is Guillotine. A 8 There are many versions like bird chirping etc. Meditation is first of all concentration practiced; and thoughts flows like water which alone shall be controlled by Practice. Book on Meditation by aravinder, Sivananda may be read. A 9 In Mahabharatham Draupati did not walk with so easily; there are dialogues well written as the resistence of Draupati. And the best I relished was from Bharathi's Panchali sabatham: துரியோதனனின் ஏவலில் அவனுடைய தேர்ப்பாகன் திரௌபதியை அவைக்கு அழைத்துவரச் சொன்னதாகச் சொல்கிறான். திரௌபதி சீறுகின்றாள். *. . . யார் சொன்ன வார்த்தையடா!சூதர் சபைதனிலே தொல்சீர் மறக்குலத்துமாதர் வருதல் மரபோடா . . .*who said so? in the gambling hall,can a shatriya queen woman arrive?is it traditional? *(பாஞ்.சபதம் - விதுரன் சொல்வது - 48)* என முழங்குகின்றாள். பாகன் மன்னனிடம் வந்து அவன் ஏவலால் மீண்டும் வந்து திரௌபதியை அழைக்கின்றான். அப்போது திரௌபதி கேட்கிறாள்; <http://www.tamilvu.org/courses/degree/c011/c0111/audio/c011142b.ra> *நாயகர் தாம் தம்மைத் தோற்ற பின் - என்னை நல்கும் உரிமை அவர்க்கில்லை - புலைத்தாயத்திலே விலைப்பட்ட பின் - என்ன சாத்திரத்தால் எனைத் தோற்றிட்டார்? - அவர்தாயத்திலே விலைப்பட்டவர் - புவி தாங்கும் துருபதன் கன்னி நான் - நிலைசாயப் புலைத் தொண்டு சார்ந்திட்டால் - பின்பு தாரமுடைமை அவர்க்குண்டோ?* *(பாஞ்.சபதம். - திரௌபதி சொல்லுதல் - 52)* *Huband after becoming a slave cannot pledgeme and he has no rightUnder what constitution of law after becoming a slave in the mean gambid, he lost me?; he is a loser and was purchaed in the gamble; I am the daughter of Durupatahan the King who rules the world; after becoming a servant does he have aright of wife over me?. * இந்தத் தருக்கம் பாரதியின் சொற்களில் மிக வலிவாக வெளிப்பட்டுள்ளதல்லவா? இங்கே தான் பாரதி பறக்கவிடும் பெண்ணுரிமைக் கொடி தன் முழுப் பொலிவையும் காட்டி நம்மை ஈர்க்கின்றது. 1. அடிமைகளுக்கு என்னைத் தோற்கும் உரிமை இல்லை, 2. தகுதியற்ற தொழிலில் ஈடுபடுவோர்க்கு நான் மனைவி ஆகமாட்டேன் இந்த இரண்டு உரிமைப் பட்டயங்களைத் திரௌபதி உயர்த்திப் பிடிக்கிறாள். புதிய பெண்ணுலகம் உரிமைகளை மீட்டுக் கொள்ளும் போராட்டத்தில் இவை இடம் பெறுகின்றன என்பது கருதத்தக்கது. பாஞ்சாலியைத் தெய்வமாக எண்ணுவதற்குக் களம் அமைத்தது மகாபாரதம். ஆனால் பாரதி கண்ட பாஞ்சாலி தெய்வம் அல்லள்; மானிடப் பெண்; ஆனால் புதுமைப்பெண். கொடுமை கண்டவிடத்துச் சீறிச் சினந்து போராடும் துணிவு பெண்ணுக்கு வேண்டும் என்று காட்டும் புரட்சிப்பெண்ணாக அவள் விளங்குகின்றாள். A 12 Hindi was projected as an anti hindi stir in TN in 1966 by the present ruler; but TN has many many who speak fluent Hindi in spite of the fact that Hindi is not included in the curriculum In TN. On the contrary every Kerala resident 96% should know and speak Hindi as it is the language in the curriculum. It is a wrong statement of bias.
