akshara;
the imperishable, unchangeable and indestructible
the very word,letter, syllable
the pranava OM
the dettatreya trinity of brahma vishnu and shiva


so here's my thoughts amplified
this colloquy that i have with myself now here
the search for the things that remain constant in this life of changes, the things that are imperishable
yet cherishing the most simple things in life that may seem so unimportant and small but add beauty and colour,
to seek out the unfathomable, powers beyond our wildest dreams
the sanatana dharma to be upheld,
and the karma that we cannot run or hide from for it is the very equation we need to balance out
and hence the very reason of our existence
with a mic up my soul let the story unfold,
the past be forgotten and a new tale told.

यत्र यत्र रघुनाथ कीर्तनम् तत्र तत्र क्रित मस्तक अन्जलिं बष्पावरी परीपूर्ण लोचनम् मारुतिं नमश्च राक्षस अंतकम्।

sudha ragunathan


tomorrow's vinayakar chaturthi
and there i was the eve of it at senpaga vinayagar temple
watching south indian classical music's best perform live
SUDHA RAGUNATHAN
such a treat and i have sai vignesh anna to thank for it
like he said, a mix of popular hits
raagam names flying everywhere
i learnt alot that day
and i heard my fav songs, kurai onrum illai and bo shambo
i maybe quiet, but thats cos i want to be like the sponge
absorbing everthing around me and not letting a single word out.
that doesnt mean i don't know
it just means i choose not to say.
