Dear PS,

My reaction? I would have called the TT, the second time they disagreed to vacate

Very happy that you visited lot of temples and really enjoyed your trip. God Bless!!

Hi Nandhu,
Thank you for peeping in. and sharing your view. Instead of going in search of the TTE, we tried to tackle the problem ourselves. To our surprise none of the co-travellers raised their voice . Anyway we succeeded in occupying our seats on our own.
Love,
PS

Yep... it happens all over the world me thinks.... If you are not involved, then they become mute statues and ignore what's happening around even though they know its wrong...

I guess that has to change.. everyone should know this: it can happen to you tomorrow,so voice up !!

Dear Mrs.Pushpavalli,
Sorry for this late fb....glad to see that you had visited 10 out of 108 Divya desams...had darshan of Thaanaa Thirumeni...diamond padam of Sri Ranganathar...

But the incidents you had mentioned happens eveywhere and what you did is appropriate...to some people, nothing works like 'THANDAM' method in 'sama, dhana, bedha,,thandam ways...

Dear Sundari,
What you say is true. Railway is earning a lot through Thathkal sceme. If we cancel we can't get back money. I think the travel agencies are also booking tickets enmass and cause trouble for genuine travellers by blocking tickets. We the general public are the end sufferers.
Love,
Ps

Dear Sriniketan,
People do not understand polite language. As you say they only understand dhanda.
I am fortunate to complete almst all the 108 divya desa yathra except 2 in Pandiyanadu, Salagramam and Naimisaranyam. By the Grace of the Almighty I had visited all other places.
Love,
PS

Dear Pushpavalli mam..
What you did is very correct... We can once say them that its our resevation.. if they didnt listen we should complain to the TT.... Even i will do so..... :) Their is no use to show more and more politeness to people who are adament and stubborn..

Hope you had a nice spirtual trip..

Love
Brindha....

Dear Brindha,
Thank you for your FB. We have to fight for our right. We get very angry when people jump in queues also making the people who are standing fools. When will our people learn to behave properly is a question mark.
Love,
PS

Dear Nandhu,
When peple know that an injustice is committed, if they are not raising the voice it is dampening our spirit. Thanks for voicing your opinion.
Love,
PS
