When will this thirst for freedom quench ? When will our craze for
slavery die ? When will the chains of our hands be released ? When will
our troubles be solved and become only dreams ?
Kural of the week:
------------------
Inbaththul inbam vizhaiyaathaan thunbaththul
thunbam urudhal ilan.

[One who is not excited in happiness, is not affected in grief

Thought for the week:
---------------------
The form is perceived and the eye is its perceiver. It (eye) is
perceived and the ind is its perceiver. The mind with its modifications
is perceived and the mind is its perceiver. The mind with its
modifications is perceived and the Witness (the Self) is verily the
perceiver. But It (the Witness) is not perceived (by any other).
- Drg-Drshya-Viveka, v.1
[The discrimination between the seer and the seen]
Site of the week:
-----------------
Ever wanted to know the lyrics of 'Saare Jahaan Se Achchaa' or
'Vandemaataram' ? Also, for those who have forgotten or don't know our
***National Anthem*** (itself), the site of the week features these,
along with articles by Nehru, Tagore, Swami Vivekananda & others.
