Mr Rajaram,
So you are a good iyer/iyengar? How you qualify to be a good Iyer or Iyengar
who abuse, disrespect and talk ill of others?
Do you follow Aapasthamba sutra perfectly? Do you mean the meaning of
Apasthamba correctly? Answer my question.
Your basic drawback is your thinking of others are not having caliber like you.
Leave your pride. Be a good human being.

I read and understand well. Not blabber like you quoting some books/epics or

Think for yourself, about standing on an ammikkal, used for grinding everyday.
An item got sanctity.

A good explanation - Mr Sekar
Still the bride just touches her right leg on the Ammi. Never stand on it. Am
I correct? While the Ammi is touched by feet by girl , bridegroom holds her ,
am I correct. My memory is not clear since I have never observed closely this
function in recent days.Gopalakrishnan

Thanks, Yes.
In a lighter vein. may be because we say I will stand with / by you. So
standing on the Ammi.
A small piece of granite is not of much use but Ammi helps us in so many ways -
remember those days did not have mixi etc.

Dear Mr Sekar,
Happy with your explanation. But it can be done by touching with hand. Why
pressed with leg. Infact in marriage halls, being a small piece of granite, the
girl can even slip.Gopalakrishnan

Thanks.
Sri G K,
Re your query, one explanation I have heard is that
It is a symbolic way of saying that I will be with you, like a rock, through
thick and thin, rain or shine, fortune or misfortune, unwavering in my support
- Ammi was chosen as a symbol to show however much you subject it to grinding,
pounding etc. it stays rock solid - like that I will stay with you.

you have mentioned the ammi is for griding small quantity of wet/dry items.
Such an item how is touched with feet( Ammi mithucchu) in marriage?
Normally we don't touch with feet any such items with feet.

Namaste. Ammikkal [ the metate and mano] it is used for grinding small
quantities.Both wet and dry grinding can be done. The mano is pushed and pulled
along the surface of the metate. The Mexicans have been using it for more than
five thousand years. Even for bruising /crushing it is used viz cardamom, dry
ginger etc. Ammi methikkal [ the ahsmarohanam] in our weddings is a ritual.Also
in Upanayanam. Aattukkal [ the molcajet and tejolete] was used for grinding
batter for dosai, iddali, vadai etc. Even the idichakkai[ the 45 day old young
jackfruit ] was crushed in it. The Iyer riddle " Kadakada kudukudu naduviley
paathaalam " is the molcajete. It was used for pounding small quantities of
veppilakkatti and similar things. Ezhunthram [ the quern/ handmill] was used
for grinding uzhundu[ the black gram], rice etc. Beetling stones were used in
rivers etc. At home the a stone was used for beating clothes while washing.

Dear Sri Gopalakrishnan
The picture shows neither aattukkal nor thoikkumkkal.
It shows an ammikkal and kuzhavi for grindin g spices and scraped coconut, and
an ezunthiram of two rounded stones, the lower stone fixed to the gound and
having a short thick steel spike in the middle and an upper stone with a hole
in the middle through which the steel spike appears, plus a verticl wooden
handle to move the upper one. The grains to be ground or to be split are
poured into the hole in the upper stoner, and the wooden handle turned so the
grains fall between both stones and are ground.
An aattukkal is a large squarish granite stone with a shallow depression at the
top into which the bottom of a kuzhavi is inserted and moved round to grind the
grains (such as wet rice and wet split black beans).
We still have both ammikkal and aattukkal (and their respective kuzhavis) at
home, though we seldom use them except when there is failure of electricity
supply for the power grinders. We left the ezhunthiram at home in India, as we
did the ulakkais with which we pounded rice and other grains into powder on the
aattukkal. We used different ulakkais for grinding turmeric and dried pepper.
We only saw thoikkum-kal, or stones for beating clothes to clean them, at the
riverside or edges of ponds, where washermen took their collected laundry. The
stones were broad, and largely sloped so that the dirty water fell back into
the river or pond.

Dear friends,
The grinding stone-AAttukkal and washing stone-ThoikkumKal are Vasthu items.
In new homes also they are provided.
On emergency when electric power is not there, still it is used to grind
coconuts. Washing stone is mostly used to wash the socked kitchen cleaning
clothes. Some times guests prefer it for washing towels after bath. Clothes
line is provided near them to put and dry clothes.
These are available at Kamarajapuram before Camp Road junction, in East
Tambaram, from where I procured for my home.Gopalakrishnan
