Quote of the week: ------------------ Thunbam nerungivandha podhum - naam soarndhuvida laagaadhu paappa; anbu migundhadheiva mundu - thunbam aththanaiyum poakkividum paapa. - Bharathiar. [Thunbam - grief; nerungi - closely; vandha - came; naam - we; soarndhu - loose interest; aagaadhu - should not do; pappa - female child or kid; anbu - love; migundha - more; dheivam - god; undu - exists; aththanaiyum - everything; poakividum - solve] [Though you are in grief, dear kid !, never get frustrated; for there is the loving God who will solve all your problems.] {Not only for kids, but holds good for all. } Kural of the week: ------------------ Nanrendra vatrullum nanrae mudhuvarul mundhu kilavaach cherivu. [Nanr(u) - good; endra - said; (a)vatrullum - among; mundhu - winning] [The use of the apt word to express one's idea shows one's knowledge. Wise men use words that can never be replaced by a better word.] Do you know ? ------------- It has been a custom - for a married female to wear 'rings' in her feet (fingers on her feet). But, not many of us know why ?? The finger next to the big finger on the foot, is a nerve centre for her womb. So, by wearing a ring, which constantly touches this centre, it helps in curing the problems related to the womb and thereby helps her in giving birth to a healthy child. Not all the customs are foolish. They have a reason behind them. { Read somewhere.} Site of the week: ----------------- Like to read the excerpts of works by Swami Vivekananda ??
