For the unindocrinated, what is eve-teasing? Is this an Indo-English word
like daciots? If so what is the root of this word?

From the article, it sounds like sexual harassment.

Here is your aryanisation of kEraLaa in a nutshell.

  Yes your GREAT ARYAN?MALAYALA culture is well preservbed in
the SYDNEY musuem AUST. I saw it. Some malayaala aryan marriage custom.
They have the picture. The caste aryan claimants as a ritual
allow the Brahmin to sleep with the bride on the first night
to attain mukti-in the true aryan sense.

 Hi,
    Regarding "Chinna Chinna aasai", I recall reading a kavithai
 in one of the Deepavali malars (kalki or Amudhasurabhi '89/90!!)
 by Vairamuthu. It was very good and even it came as musical
 composition in Television (as a stop gap arrangement or odd).
 But I don't remember to have read the particular line there.

 Maybe I am wrong. Any comments would be appreciated.

Hai Murali

	If you clearly note the lines of the song, it describes all the 'Asai's which are not practically possible (except the first two 'Asai's in second para).  I don't think that could be 'CHITTRIDAIKKU MELA', because that is a very  normal and usual act( Asai !). CHITHRAIKKU MELA would mean NAKSHATHRAM.

One possibility for 'CHITTRIDAIKKU MELA' is that ( in the way I explained ) usually it is ' CHITTRIDAIKKU KELA'.

Followup-To: news.groups
Organization: Michigan Technological University
X-Newsreader: Tin 1.1 PL3
Date: Wed, 13 Jan 1993 03:52:22 GMT



I would like to call together a discussion for the creation of
a new newgroup, tentatively called "soc.culture.malaysia"

The proposed group is unmoderated. That is, all who wish to join
may freely do so.

Proposed CHARTER for the proposed group "soc.culture.malaysia" -

   The proposed group, soc.culture.malaysia, is intended for
   the discussion of all topics pertaining to Malaysia, including
   but not limited to: culture, national politics, foreign diplomacy,
   economy, peoples, and land.


Why I feel this newsgroup should be created -

1) The current newsgroup in which most discussion of Malaysia
   occurs is "soc.culture.asean". It seems that most of the
   discussion in this group as a whole pertains to either
   Malaysia or Singapore (which perhaps should have a group) 
   rather than pertaining to ASEAN. This strongly hints that
   a separate group should be created for discussion of Malaysia.

2) Most of the larger countries in Southeast Asia are already represented
   by newsgroups, including:

   soc.culture.filipino
   soc.culture.thai
   soc.culture.vietnamese
   alt.culture.indonesia

   as well as others nearby -

   soc.culture.australia
   soc.culture.bangladesh
   soc.culture.china
   soc.culture.hongkong
   soc.culture.new-zealand 

3) soc.culture.asean, as mentioned in #1 above, no longer has much
   talk about ASEAN as a whole, suggesting the group is no longer
   fulfilling its intended purpose. Perhaps it should be dissolved
   or renamed with a new charter. Anyhow, it now seems an apropriate
   time for soc.culture.malaysia to be created.

 `Thiruvembaavai'  is a work by Maniccavasakar. His other popular
Tamil work is his `Thiruvaacakam'.  Maniccavasakar belonged to
the 9th century, A.D. I think that the word `vaacakam' in his
`Thiruvaacakam' has a Sanskrit origin. Is it from `vasanam' ?
His work `Thiruvaacakam' was acclaimed by the poets in his days
and I remember one verse praising this work. I don't remember
who wrote this `veNpaa' but it is probably by Campanthar. It is,

 "vaan_kalantha  maanicca vaasaka_nin  vaasakaththai

		SUBHAMANGALA - A Welcome Change !!!!

In recent years serious tamil readers must have noticed a marked
deterioration in the standard of Tamil magazines (weekly, fortnightly
monthly ..).  SUBHAMANGALA (a monthly), edited by Komal Swaminathan (of Thaneer,
Thaneer fame) makes a good alternate reading material.  Following is
an example format of the magazine: 
1. An interview with a premiere Tamil writer(e.g. Prabanjan, Karunanidhi) 
2. Film reviews (coverage of film festivals)
3. Drama reviews 
4. Two short stories 
5. One long story 
6. Very good articles (from neo-colonialism to why Tamil writers are not
taken seriously by other language writers).
7. Translated articles

The list is long and of very good quality.  It looks like a genuine
and sincere  effort at presenting the readers with some thought
provoking writings.  

Subscription Details

               So "ethuvumE inRi 'ethiopia'vai padaiththaan" 
               will mean that God created ethiopia without 
               any 'bad qualities' is it ?! 

               'paayum vEgaththil' for Bangala Desh refers to
                the flood-prone location of the country, is it ?!

              If no ill-meaning was intended it is great ! 
              I apologize.

Can someone post the basic notes (swarams) involved in the ragas discussed
till now?

Examples: 

1. Mohanam: sa ri ga pa dha sa
2. bhoopaalam: sa ri1 ga pa dha1 sa

Any additions to this list?
