    Hello Mindi dear......
    Exactly.....very well ahead of her times indeed....Can imagine her charisma......glad that you liked the post.....
    I always had a passion for Tamil....and, as I age, I could understand better and hence this tribute to this awesome Avvaiyar.....

    Dear Padmini ma'am.....
    Thanks for dropping in ma'am......
    Yes ma'am...., as you have pointed out, She had respect and awe for Thiruvalluvar's Thirukkural.....but, her works were simple and easily understandable even to a little child......
    As our Mindi has said, she was way ahead of her times......
    I agree, her advice has fallen on deaf ears......may be, as a child we read her works...and try to apply what could be applied at that stage....and later many never go back again and re-read.....
    For example....."Undi surukkudhal Pendirku azhagu".....roughly translated......"Diet control adds beauty to a maiden"...:hide:...How true.......:)
    Your feedback is lovely ma'am....I am glad to get such a sweet feedback from you......:bowdown
