One man cried when he had no shoes. But he stopped crying when he saw a man without legs. Life is full of Blessings. Always try to understand it.

 

[Sarath]

It is better to cry than to be angry, because anger hurts others while tears flow silently through the soul & cleanses the heart..

ஒரு உயிர் துடிக்கும் பொழுது, யாரும் கவனிக்காமல் இருப்பார்கள். ஆனால் நின்ற பின் எல்லாரும் துடிப்பார்கள்.
That's Vazhkai.

Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn.

Sri.Praveen,

Greetings. Your decision to ban Sri.Ramanujam possibly based on a sound reason. But, in my opinion, banning may not be the right choice. I am sure, we do not know the whole picture. For the time being, I request you to consider reversing the ban conditionally; You may have to discuss the situation and condition with some members with more life experience (there are many to choose from....Sri.Kunjuppu, Sri.Sangom, Sri.Nara, Sri.Hari.....I can think of many more names). I request you to kindly reverse your decision, please. (Sometimes moderation in a forum is a very good approach).

Cheers!

I'm only trying to say that such things can be avoided. Temples should be disabled friendly. That boy's wheelchair was pushed around. he was treated like a criminal. If some1 does something like this to us then we will be hurt just think abt wat a specially abled person would feel. He would be shattered. The parents say that they will never come to the any temple in the south. concept of aththi devo bhava. concept of being empathetic concept of putting ourselves in their shoes. Obviously if such instances occur then we will have to speak up coz it effects us also in some way or other. PPl will say ohh u r also a brahmin. It will give us bad name. In Srirangam temple there are special chairs for disabled where there are persons employed by the kovil to operate upon. I sincerely hope such things are conveniently avoided. Some1 should speak up in MYSORE against this. whether its court,civil society, intellectuals, or govt.,media, temple trust.

With Regards,
R. Ramanujan.

Sorry for this discussion quite late. As a one-time student of anthropology and avid "armchair indologist", I think it is important to recognize what culture is. It is a set of rituals, beliefs, and norms established by a society to survive and flourish in its environment. As the environment changes, either through emigration or technology, the culture changes accordingly. However, the basic elements of the structure - general views on divinity, food, relatives, and people generally remain fixed.

There is one thing, however, that dramatically changes culture and that is outside invasion by a dominant society, which can leave an indelible impact on a society that can last many generations. In our case in South India, particularly Tamil Nadu, such an impact came less from the Muslims as it did from the British, resulting in our love for the "white man's world". Such an inherent love for the dominant culture, even when the dominant culture is not present is a form of psychological/cultural conditioning called "learned suppression". The only to heal from it is when a healthy representation of the population - anthropologists feel about 1/10th - begins to rebel against this conditioning and establish the old criteria for cultural growth. Such a healthy representation has not yet happened among the Indian community.
