Small story 13.Dedication and threat.

short story13. Dedication and threat. Ranganayaki was waiting for son’s arrival from the office.Her son was working for a leading daily paper as Editor.His working hours are not like others ,responsibility is more to deliver correct updates and news to people and inform what is happening to the society.His ten years service for the past few months was tired to report daily rape and gang rape cases and how women were treated by unscrupulous people .He has been continuously mentioning a stringent law should be implemented to eradicate this menace to save women.At times he gets threaten calls to safeguard his life from various goondas and criminals in the society.Editor Varun is bold,brave and love his journalism field wanted to inform the society with autheticity.He may go home late some days after receiving the reports from reporters .His mother will always be tense till he returns.His recent worry that a new rule must be implemented for the criminals who does not respect women and do rape individually as well gang rapes.Ranganayaki too pray her favourite goddess Sri Andal to help her son and safeguard women in the society.Today not only for women but also honest journalists life too at risk .Will both of them saved by implementing new laws is Varun’s task.who is responsible and his answer is administration .For that he prepared a opinion column and hence his departure to home was late. Ranganayaki sat by the window, her gaze fixed on the street below, waiting for her son’s arrival. The soft glow of the setting sun bathed the room in a warm, golden light, but her heart was heavy with worry. Her son, Varun, had been working as an editor for a leading daily newspaper for over a decade. His role was demanding, often keeping him away from home late into the night. His dedication to his job was unwavering, but it came with a price. Varun’s recent work had been particularly harrowing. His reports had been filled with stories of rape, gang rapes, and the horrific treatment of women by unscrupulous individuals. Each story he uncovered seemed to pile more weight onto his shoulders. He often spoke of the need for stringent laws to combat these heinous crimes, believing that only strong legal measures could protect women and make society safer. The threats Varun received from various criminals and goondas only added to Ranganayaki’s anxiety. She prayed daily to her favorite goddess, Sri Andal, asking for her son’s safety and for protection for women everywhere. The growing danger surrounding honest journalists like Varun was troubling, and she feared for his life each time he left for work. Today was no different. Varun had left the office late again, his departure delayed by the preparation of an opinion column he hoped would spark change. He was passionate about his cause, but his bravery came with personal risk. The column was a powerful piece advocating for new laws that would target those who committed sexual crimes, both individually and in gangs. Varun believed that the responsibility lay with the administration to implement these laws and bring about meaningful reform. As the hours ticked by, Ranganayaki’s worry grew. She knew that Varun’s work was crucial, but she couldn’t help but be anxious for his safety. The increasing violence against women and the threats to journalists made her prayers all the more fervent. Finally, the sound of the door creaking open broke the silence. Varun walked in, his face tired but determined. Ranganayaki rushed to him, her concern melting into relief as she hugged him tightly. “Late night again?” she asked, her voice filled with both affection and worry. Varun smiled wearily, “Yes, Mama. I had to finish the column. I hope it makes a difference.” Ranganayaki looked into her son’s eyes, seeing the resolve that had driven him through countless sleepless nights. “I’m proud of you, Varun. But please, take care of yourself too.” Varun nodded, understanding the depth of her concern. “I will, Mama. And I believe that change is coming. It has to.” As mother and son settled into their evening routine, the city outside continued its relentless pace. Ranganayaki held onto a glimmer of hope, trusting that Varun’s efforts would bring about the change they so desperately needed. For now, she was just grateful to have her son home, safe and sound.

Small story 12.Earlier Rejection.

Small Story 12. Earlier Rejection. Shekhar walked into the interview room, only to find himself face-to-face with the HR Manager who had once been his college classmate—and someone he had harbored feelings for, only to be rejected. The recognition was mutual, and it was clear from the shocked expression on her face. "Please, sit down," Vasanthy, the HR Manager, said, regaining her composure. Shekhar took a seat, still taken aback by the unexpected reunion. Vasanthy glanced over Shekhar's credentials. "I see you've moved around quite a bit in your career. Why haven't you stayed in one place for more than a year?" Shekhar explained, "It was mainly due to the work environment and boss behavior." "Boss behavior?" Vasanthy asked, her curiosity piqued. Shekhar elaborated, "It's a matter of not respecting my work and suggestions in certain areas." "I understand," Vasanthy responded thoughtfully. "But if you join us here and face a similar situation, wouldn’t you just resign again?" Shekhar, feeling a bit disheartened, replied, "I don’t think I’ll be selected here anyway." Vasanthy was taken aback. "On what basis are you saying that?" Shekhar explained, "Because of my previous rejection." Vasanthy's expression softened. "That was for some genuine reasons. This time, you’re not rejected. I’ve always respected your academic credentials and knowledge, ever since our college days. Here, you are selected. The decision is up to you—whether you choose to stay or not." Shekhar was stunned by Vasanthy's words. Given the company's longstanding reputation and the promising offer, combined with Vasanthy’s acknowledgment of his skills and her candidness about the previous rejection, he felt reassured. He decided to accept the offer, seeing it as an opportunity for growth and a chance to prove himself. With a mixture of relief and new resolve, Shekhar signed the offer, putting aside any past rejections and focusing on the future ahead. K.Ragavan

Small story 11. Timely Help.

In a bustling town, the new academic year had begun, and Arjun was eagerly waiting for his father's decision regarding his college admission. Arjun had earned a spot in a prestigious institution, but the hefty fee of fifty thousand rupees was a major obstacle. His father, Ramamirtham, was thrilled to support his son's dream, but his financial situation was strained. Ramamirtham’s monthly salary, after deductions, was only 27,000 rupees. On top of that, he was still repaying loans from his two daughters' weddings for the past eight years. Every morning during his walks, Ramamirtham confided in his friend Krishnan about his struggles. Krishnan, who also worked for a modest salary, had one daughter who worked at a multinational company with a lucrative salary. Despite their different financial statuses, Krishnan always offered Ramamirtham comfort and support. The next day, when Arjun decided to approach his father for an update, he found that Ramamirtham had left for work earlier than usual. Determined to find a solution, Arjun went to the college administrator, Seshan, to request an extension on the fee payment, given his rank. To his surprise, Seshan handed Arjun a receipt for the fee payment, already taken care of. Arjun was baffled and asked who had made the payment. Seshan’s reply left him astonished: it was Vasanthi. Arjun had never heard the name before. Later, he learned that Vasanthi was none other than Krishnan’s daughter, the one with the well-paying job. Touched by this unexpected gesture, Arjun approached Krishnan to express his gratitude. Krishnan explained that his daughter, Vasanthi, had always admired Arjun’s hard work and was moved by Ramamirtham’s dedication to his family. Vasanthi wanted to help make Arjun’s dream a reality, appreciating the sacrifices Ramamirtham had made. Overwhelmed with gratitude, Arjun felt a renewed sense of determination. He promised himself that he would work hard to honor not only his father's sacrifices but also the kindness of Krishnan’s family. As he began his college journey, Arjun carried with him not just the weight of his ambitions but also the profound impact of timely help and true friendship. K.Ragavan

Letter.

Dear Honorable Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji, I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I am writing to you as a concerned senior citizen deeply troubled by the recent incidents of violence against women and children in our country. While Bharat is indeed making remarkable progress in various fields, it is disheartening to witness the rising number of brutal crimes, including gang rapes and assaults on individuals, including the alarming recent case involving a medical student in Kolkata. Such acts are abhorrent and unacceptable in any civilized society. Bharat has a rich history of leaders and rulers who have upheld justice and safeguarded dharma. It is imperative that we continue this legacy by addressing the increasing incidents of sexual violence with the seriousness they demand. In light of this, I humbly request the implementation of more stringent laws to combat these heinous crimes. Specifically, I propose that if an individual is proven guilty of rape or sexual assault, the verdict should be delivered within 48 hours of the crime. Swift justice would not only act as a deterrent to potential offenders but also enhance the protection and respect afforded to women and children in our society. Ensuring the safety of our citizens, particularly the most vulnerable, is of utmost importance. I trust that your esteemed office will consider these concerns and work towards reinforcing our legal framework to better safeguard women and children across Bharat. Thank you for your attention to this critical matter. Yours sincerely, K.Ragavan Bengaluru https://www.narendramodi.in/network/userpost-task/66c52184fb1fdf6e2d6926bd via MyNt

The next few days unfolded with a mix of anxious hope and diligent planning. Here’s a summary of how things progressed: With the funds now securely in his account, Ramaswamy and his son Muthu immediately arranged for the necessary medical treatments for his grandson. The treatment was set to begin promptly, and the medical team reassured them of the best possible care Despite the physical distance between them, Lakshmi stayed closely involved with the updates on her nephew’s condition. She communicated frequently with Muthu and offered emotional support from afar. Ram continued to show his respect and concern through regular calls and emails The crisis had surprisingly strengthened the family bonds.

Small Story 7. Age plays

Small Story 7. Age plays In the bustling streets of JP Nagar, Bengaluru, Ambujam, a regular visitor of the famous temple, emerged without collecting prasadam due to her hurry. The temple was packed because of the Varalakshmi Pooja festival, and with the streets crowded, getting an auto was a challenge. Ambujam didn't know how to call an Uber or Ola since she wasn’t familiar with the apps. Just then, a familiar face appeared: Rajyashree, her old schoolmate. Rajyashree greeted Ambujam warmly and offered her a ride, as she was also heading to their friend Pankajam's house. The two chatted animatedly during the ride, discussing everything from the latest saree designs to school memories. Upon reaching Pankajam's house, they were warmly welcomed. After spending an hour enjoying sweets and conversation, a group of children came over to pay their respects. One of the children addressed them as "Grandma," but Rajyashree quickly corrected the child, saying, "You should call us 'Aunty' instead." Ambujam, noticing Rajyashree’s reaction, whispered to her, “You know, the age factor and our appearance inevitably influence how people address us. No one can escape from that.” Rajyashree nodded in agreement, reflecting on how age and appearance play a role in relationships and social interactions. K.Ragavan

Small Story 6.An Hour Tension.

Small Story 6.An Hour Tension. Anand paced back and forth on the platform at Bangalore Jayanagar station, his eyes scanning the crowd for any sign of Rekha. The clock on the station wall seemed to taunt him with every passing minute. Two trains had already departed, and Rekha was still nowhere to be seen. Anand's thoughts raced as he replayed their recent conversations in his mind. He remembered how their friendship had blossomed so quickly after she had returned his forgotten wallet. Their conversations had flowed effortlessly, revealing shared dreams and aspirations. Anand had felt an instant connection, something rare and precious. They had even talked about marriage, considering their families’ wishes and their own budding feelings. Anand glanced at his phone, hoping for a message or a missed call, but the screen remained stubbornly blank. His fingers drummed impatiently against his thigh. His heart sank with every minute that passed. Had something happened to her? Or had she simply changed her mind? His phone buzzed suddenly, and Anand's heart skipped a beat. He snatched it up, but it was only a notification from a news app. Frustrated, he let out a sigh and looked around again. The station's hustle and bustle seemed to mock his anxiousness. Just as he was about to lose hope, a familiar figure appeared in the distance. Rekha, with her warm smile and apologetic eyes, hurried towards him. Anand's breath caught in his throat as he saw her. "I'm so sorry, Anand," Rekha said, her voice filled with genuine regret. "I got caught in traffic and couldn't reach you on time. I should have called." Anand's initial anger melted away as he saw her earnest expression. He could see that she had been through a stressful journey to get here. He took a deep breath, allowing the relief to wash over him. "It’s okay, Rekha," he said, his voice softer now. "I was just worried. Let’s not let this ruin our plans. We’ve waited long enough." Rekha nodded, her eyes shining with a mix of relief and affection. "Absolutely. Let's talk, and make the plans we’ve been dreaming about." As they walked towards a nearby café, hand in hand, the worries of the past hour seemed to dissolve. The promise of their future together felt more tangible now, and Anand couldn’t help but smile. They were both nervous, but also excited, ready to take the next step in their journey together. K.Ragavan

Letter

" Letter Published I The National UAE on 16 August, 2024 With regard to Taniya Dutta's report Protesting Kolkata doctors claim cover-up in killing of trainee Indian medic after arrest (August 13): The 31-year-old resident doctor killed so brutally while she was on shift at a hospital was a chilling story. It is not surprising that the city of Kolkata and the entire country is protesting against the crime, reminding women once again of how unsafe the streets and even supposed safe places can be. Doctors are often viewed as the saviours of humanity. Perhaps this case is all the more shocking because the vile treatment of a medical professional has shaken the public even more than other cases of violence against women. The extent of injuries on the body of the deceased doctor were shocking and such a state of affairs is tragic and highly condemnable. It's unacceptable in any society. The police have arrested a civic volunteer, who has reportedly confessed to the crime. The case raises several questions and it is no wonder that protests across cities have disrupted patient care. Crimes against women cannot be tolerated. K Ragavan, Denver, Colorado

Small story 5. Touching Journey.

Touching Journey Kesav boarded the bus to Tirunelveli, feeling a mix of anticipation and fatigue. It was his first journey to the city in years, and though he had usually traveled by night train, he had to settle for the bus this time due to a lack of reservations. As he found his seat, he noticed a familiar face . "Hi, you’re Shekar, right?" Kesav asked eagerly. The man turned to him with a puzzled look and replied, "Sorry, I’m not Shekar. My name is Ramu." Kesav’s smile faltered. He felt a pang of disappointment, scolding his memory for failing him. He had been looking forward to catching up with an old schoolmate he hadn’t seen in a decade, and now it seemed that hope had evaporated. As the bus started its journey from Madurai to Tirunelveli, Kesav’s thoughts were interrupted by a call from his wife, Shobana. "Hello, Kesav. Don’t forget to buy two kilos of Tirunelveli halwa—one for us and one for my friend Nithya. And remember, you’re coming back tomorrow night." Kesav chuckled, "Of course, Shobana. How could I forget? Tirunelveli halwa is sweeter like the people here, and the Thamirabarani water is the best!" The bus made a stop at Kovilpatti, and passengers poured out to grab coffee. Kesav stretched his legs and reboarded the bus. As they resumed their journey, he glanced at the man beside him, who seemed to be lost in thought. Finally, after an hour and a half, the bus arrived at the Tirunelveli bus stand. Kesav grabbed his suitcase and stepped off, looking around for an auto to take him to his hotel. To his surprise, Ramu, his seatmate, was also getting off the bus. An unfamiliar man approached Ramu with a warm smile. "Hello, Shekar! How are you?" the man said, shaking Ramu’s hand. Kesav’s heart skipped a beat. “Shekar? But…you said your name was Ramu…” Ramu looked at Kesav, his expression solemn. “I’m sorry. My real name is shekhar. I had to tell you I was Ramu because I didn’t want to burden you with the truth.” Kesav was puzzled. Before he could respond, Shekar turned to the man who had greeted him. "I’m sorry for deceiving you, old friend. I didn't want to tell you the truth. I’m at the final stage of cancer, and the doctors have said there’s nothing more they can do. I didn’t want to dampen your visit with this news. I wanted to remember our time together as happy and carefree." Tears welled up in Kesav’s eyes as he absorbed the gravity of the situation. His old friend was struggling with such a profound challenge, and he had been completely unaware. "Shekar," Kesav said softly, embracing his old friend, "I wish you had told me sooner. But know this: your strength and bravery are what matter now. Let’s make the most of the time we have together. We’ll share memories and stories, and I’ll cherish every moment." As they headed to the waiting vehicle, Kesav realized that sometimes, the most touching journeys are the ones that reveal the deepest truths. In the midst of pain and sorrow, he found solace in the enduring bond of friendship and the chance to make a difference in someone’s final days. Together, they set off towards Shekar’s home, where Kesav hoped to bring a little sweetness into his friend’s life, just as his wife had reminded him to bring the Tirunelveli halwa. K.Ragavan

சிறுகதை 4. பிரார்த்தனை ஒன்றே பரிகாரம்.. அம்புஜம் தனது பிரியமான தெய்வமான ஸ்ரீ ஆண்டாளுக்கு மரியாதை செலுத்தி, திருப்பாவை பாராயணம் செய்து, வழக்கமான பக்தியுடன் தனது நாளைத் தொடங்கினார். கணவன் செய்தித்தாளில் மூழ்கியிருந்த ஹாலுக்கு நகர்ந்தபோது காலை வழக்கம் ஒரு அமைதியான தொனியை அமைத்தது. "மதிய உணவு தயாராக உள்ளது," என்று அவள் மகிழ்ச்சியுடன் சொன்னாள், தட்டுகள் மற்றும் பிற பொருட்களை மேசையில் வைத்தாள். அவர்கள் அமர்ந்ததும் அம்புஜம் தன் கணவனிடம் ஒரு எண்ணத்தைப் பகிர்ந்துகொண்டாள். "தபால்காரரிடமிருந்து எங்களுக்கு கடிதங்கள் வந்த நாட்களை நான் இழக்கிறேன். இப்போது எல்லாமே மின்னஞ்சல் மற்றும் தொலைபேசி அழைப்புகள்தான். கொஞ்ச நாட்களாக ராமிடம் இருந்து எந்த தகவலும் வரவில்லை. அவர் நலமாக இருப்பார் என நம்புகிறேன்" என்றார். அப்போது, கணவரின் போன் ஒலித்தது. அது அவர்களின் மகன் ராம், உலகின் மறுகோடியிலிருந்து அழைத்தான். "ஹலோ அப்பா! நீயும் அம்மாவும் எப்படி இருக்கீங்க? நாங்கள் இங்கே நன்றாக செய்கிறோம். எனக்கு சில உற்சாகமான செய்திகள் உள்ளன. நாளை, நான் சுகந்தியுடன் வருகிறேன். நான் இந்தியா கிளைக்கு நிரந்தரமாக மாறியுள்ளேன்!" "அப்படியா? தட்ஸ் வொண்டர்ஃபுல் நியூஸ்!" என்று தன் உற்சாகத்தை மறைக்க முடியாமல் அவள் கணவன் பதிலளித்தான். " இந்த இடமாற்றத்திற்காக நான் உப்பிலியப்பனிடம் பிரார்த்தனை செய்தேன், அவர் என் பிரார்த்தனைகளுக்கு பதிலளித்தார். நான் அதை ஒரு ஆச்சரியமாக வைத்திருக்க விரும்பினேன். சுகந்தியும் நானும் உங்கள் இருவருடனும் நெருக்கமாக இருக்க இதுவே சரியான நேரம் என்று நினைத்தோம். இது சிறிது காலமாகிவிட்டது, நான் உங்களுடன் இருக்க விரும்புகிறேன், வருகைகளுக்கு மட்டுமல்ல, நிரந்தரமாக. நானும் உங்க அம்மா, அப்பா கிட்ட அதிக நேரம் செலவழிக்கிறேன்." இந்த உரையாடலைக் கேட்ட அம்புஜத்தின் இதயம் மகிழ்ச்சியில் பொங்கியது. ராமின் முடிவால் மட்டுமல்ல, அவனது பிரார்த்தனைகள் இவ்வளவு விரைவாக நிறைவேற்றப்பட்டதாலும் அவள் சிலிர்த்தாள். அவள் தன் இதயத்திற்கு நெருக்கமாக வைத்திருந்த பிரார்த்தனை ஒரு பேரக்குழந்தைக்காக இருந்தது - எட்டு நீண்ட ஆண்டுகளாக இருந்த ஏக்கம். அவர் எப்போதும் ஸ்ரீ ஆண்டாள் நாச்சியாரின் அர்ப்பணிப்புள்ள பக்தராக இருந்தார், மேலும் அவரது பிரார்த்தனைகள் நிறைவேறும் என்று அவர் உறுதியாக நம்பினார். ஒரு பேரக்குழந்தையின் யோசனை அவளுக்கு நம்பிக்கையையும் எதிர்பார்ப்பையும் நிரப்பியது. தன்னுடைய ஜெபங்களுக்குப் பதில் கிடைக்க இந்த சந்திப்பு சரியான வாய்ப்பாக இருக்கும் என்று அவள் அறிந்திருந்தாள். ராமும் சுகந்தியும் தங்கள் பயணத்திற்குத் தயாரானபோது, அம்புஜம் ஒரு புதிய ஃபீ உணர்வை உணர்ந்தார் K.Ragavan

Small Story 4. Prayer is the only remedy..

Small story 4.Prayer is the only remedy.. Ambujam began her day with the usual devotion, paying homage to her beloved goddess Sri Andal and reciting Thirupavai. The morning routine set a serene tone as she moved to the hall where her husband was engrossed in the newspaper. "Lunch is ready," she said cheerfully, placing the plates and other items on the table. As they settled down, Ambujam shared a thought with her husband. "I miss the days when we used to get letters from the postman. Now everything is email and phone calls. I haven't heard from Ram in a while. I hope he’s alright." Just then, her husband’s phone rang. It was Ram, their son, calling from the other side of the world. "Hello, Dad! How are you and Mum? We’re doing great here. I have some exciting news. Tomorrow, I’m coming over with Sugandhi. I've transferred permanently to the India branch!" "Really? That's wonderful news!" her husband responded, unable to hide his excitement. "Yes, and we’re going to Uppiliappan Temple the day after tomorrow. I had prayed to Lord Uppiliappan for this transfer, and He answered my prayers. I wanted to keep it a surprise. Sugandhi and I thought it was the right time to be closer to you both. It’s been a while, and I want to be with you, not just for visits but permanently. I’ll also be able to spend more time with you, Mum and Dad." Ambujam’s heart swelled with joy as she overheard the conversation. She was thrilled not only by Ram’s decision but also by the fact that his prayers had been answered so swiftly. Her own prayer, which she had kept close to her heart, was for a grandchild—a longing that had been there for eight long years. She had always been a devoted follower of Sri Andal Nachiar, and she believed firmly that her prayers would be fulfilled. The idea of a grandchild filled her with hope and anticipation. She knew that this visit might just be the perfect opportunity for her prayers to be answered. As Ram and Sugandhi prepared for their journey, Ambujam felt a renewed sense of faith and excitement. The thought of finally having a grandchild brought a radiant smile to her face. She had always believed that the divine would grant her wishes in its own time, and this moment felt like a blessing about to unfold. K.Ragavan

Short Story 3. Unexpected Prize Money.

Ramaseshan had embraced retirement with enthusiasm, channeling his energy into social service for senior citizens. Ten years had passed since he had left his job in the private sector, and though he had no pension, he was content, living off the interest from his savings. His daughter, Mridula, was settled in Dubai with her husband, Aditya, and their son, who excelled in his studies. Ramaseshan and his wife would spend three months each year with them, enjoying the vibrant city and its efficient systems. One morning, after a brisk walk, Ramaseshan was delighted to bump into an old colleague, Raj, who had come to Bengaluru to visit him. They exchanged warm greetings and reminisced about old times before Ramaseshan took him home to meet his wife. After Raj left, Ramaseshan settled down with the newspaper, reflecting on his recent visit to a senior citizens' home he supported. The building’s dilapidated state weighed heavily on him, and he wished he could do more. Later that day, Ramaseshan took his bath and sat down for his daily prayer in front of his Anjaneyar idol, seeking divine guidance. Just then, his phone rang. It was Mridula. “Hi, Dad! How are you and Mum?” “We’re doing well, dear. How’s Aditya?” Ramaseshan asked. “We’re all fine,” Mridula replied. “Do you remember the raffle ticket you bought a few months ago, the one you were reluctant to purchase? Well, you’ve won! The prize is 50 lakhs!” Ramaseshan’s heart raced with disbelief and joy. He had never expected such a windfall. Tears welled up in his eyes as he realized that this unexpected blessing could be used to support his beloved senior citizens’ home. “I’m sending you the details and authorization letter right away,” Mridula continued. “Once the money is transferred, it’s yours to do with as you please.” Overwhelmed with gratitude, Ramaseshan called the manager of the senior citizens’ home immediately. “I’m donating Ten lakh rupees for the renovation of the building. I want to see it transformed within a month.” His wife, overhearing the conversation, joined him in joyful tears. The unexpected prize money was not just a stroke of luck but a divine affirmation of his dedication to helping others. Rama seshan’s heart swelled with satisfaction, knowing that this generous gift would bring comfort and joy to many deserving souls. K.Ragavan

அம்பலம் இணைய இதழில் சுஜாதா எழுதிய கேள்வி பதில்கள்.... கேள்வி: சுஜாதா சார்! கம்ப்யூட்டர் கம்ப்யூட்டர் என்று பேசுகிறீர்களே... கொஞ்சம் சாப்பாட்டைப் பற்றிப் பேசலாமே. உங்கள் கணிப்பொறி நிறுவனத்தில் கேன்டீன் எப்படி? - பதில்: கணிப்பொறி, கேன்டீன் இரண்டிற்கும் அடிக்கடி ஒரே பிரச்சினைதான் : ‘‘சர்வர் ப்ராப்ளம்’’. கேள்வி: திருமணத்திற்கும் மரபுக் கவிதைக்கும் என்ன சார் தொடர்பு? பதில்: இரண்டிலும் சீர் உண்டு. திருமணமும் ஒரு ‘தளை’தானே? இரண்டும் வளமடையத் தேவை ‘பொருள்’தான். இரண்டிலும் வெற்றி பெற நன்கு யோசித்து ‘அடி’யெடுத்து வைக்க வேண்டும். இரண்டிலும் இலக்கணப் பிழைகள் இருக்கக் கூடும். மணம் புரிந்து கொண்ட மனைவி ‘வஞ்சிப்பா’ளானால் வாழ்க்கை ‘வருத்தப்பா’ ஆகிவிடும். கேள்வி: ஒன்றுக்கு மேற்பட்ட எண்ணிக்கையாக இருந்தால் ‘கள்’ சேர்த்துக் கொள்கிறோம். (உம்) பறவை, பறவைகள்; நூல் நூல்கள் -இப்படி. ஆனால் 1330 இருந்தும் அதனை திருக்குறள் என்றுதானே சொல்கிறோம். திருக்குறள்கள் என்று சொல்வதில்லையே. பதில்: திருக்குறள் கள்ளை அனுமதிப்பதில்லை. கேள்வி: ‘மானும் மழுவமேந்தி மலர்ப் பாதம் தூக்கி ஆடும் இறைவன்’ என சிவனை கவிஞர்கள் பாடுகிறார்களே; ‘மலர்ப் பாதம்’ பெண்களுக்குத் தானே பொருந்தும். சிவனுக்கு எப்படி? – பதில்: சிவனே என்றிராமல் இப்படியொரு சக்தியுள்ள கேள்வி கேட்டிருக்கிறீர்கள். மலர்ப்பாதம் என்ற சொல்லுக்கு மலர் போன்ற பாதம் என்றுதான் பொருள் கொள்ள வேண்டும் என்பதில்லை. மலர்களால் அர்ச்சிக்கப்படுகிற பாதம் என்று பொருள் கொள்ளலாமல்லவா? உவமைத் தொகையை மூன்றாம் வேற்றுமை உருபும் பயனும் உடன் தொக்க தொகையாகப் புரிந்து கொள்ளுங்களேன். கேள்வி: தற்போதைய பட்டிமன்றங்கள் பற்றி என்ன நினைக்கிறீர்கள்? – பதில்: கி.வா.ஜ., குன்றக்குடி அடிகளார், திருச்சி தேசியக் கல்லூரி முன்னாள் பேராசிரியர் ராதாகிருஷ்ணன் போன்றோர் காலங்களில் பட்டிமன்றங்கள் சிந்தனையைத் தூண்டின. இப்போது பெரும்பாலான பட்டிமன்றங்கள் நகைச்சுவை என்ற பெயரில் சிரிப்பாய்ச் சிரிக்கின்றன. கேள்வி: லால்குடி ஜெயராமனு்க்கும், லால்குடியில் காவேரிக் கரையில் விவசாயம் செய்யும் விவசாயிக்கும் ஏதேனும் ஒற்றுமை உண்டா? பதில்: உண்டே. இவர் ஸ்வரம் பாடுகிறார்; அவர் உரம் போடுகிறார். இவர் பண் மூலம் பண்படுத்துவது மனதை; அவர் மண் மூலம் பண்படுத்துவது நிலத்தை. மொத்தத்தில் இருவருமே வயலின் மேன்மைக்காகப் பாடுபடுகிறார்கள். கேள்வி: சமையலில் மனைவிக்கு உதவி செய்வீர்களா? பதில்: சமையல் கலை இரண்டு பகுதிகளைக் கொண்டது. ஒன்று சமைப்பது. இன்னொன்று சாப்பிடுவது. நான் இரண்டாவது பகுதியில் உதவுவதுண்டு. கேள்வி: நீங்கள் மரபுக் கவிதைகள் எழுதுவது உண்டா? உங்களுடைய ஏதாவது ஒரு மரபுக் கவிதை ப்ளீஸ்! பதில்: உண்டு. எப்போதாவது. ‘வேண்டாம் வரதட்சணை’ என்ற ஈற்றடிக்கு முன்பு தினமணி கதிரில் ஒரு நேரிசை வெண்பா எழுதினேன். அது- பத்து பவுன் தங்கம் பளிச்சென்ற கல்வளையல் முத்திலே சின்னதாய் மூக்குத்தி - மத்தபடி பாண்டு வைத்து ஊர்கோலம் பாட்டு இவைதவிர வேண்டாம் வரதட் சிணை! கேள்வி: ‘சிங்களத் தமிழ்’, ‘சிங்கார சென்னைத் தமிழ்’ ? பதில்: இலங்கைத் தமிழர்களுடன் கதைக்கும் போது அவர்கள் பாவிக்கும் சில தமிழ் வார்த்தைகள் சொக்கிலேற்றுகளாய்த் தித்திக்கும் என்று நம்மால் அவதானிக்க முடிகிறது. கனகாலமாய் அவற்றைப் படித்து வருவதால் சென்னைத் தமிழைப் பொறுத்தவரை அதிக அளவில் கெட்ட வார்த்தைகளைப் பயன்படுத்தும் வட்டாரத் தமிழ் அதுதான். கேள்வி: காதல் கவிதை எழுதக் காதலித்துத்தான் ஆக வேண்டுமா? பதில்: சரிதான்... துப்பறியும் கதை எழுத கொலை செய்ய வேண்டும் என்பீர்களா? கேள்வி: ஊழல் பெருச்சாளிகள் எங்கிருந்து வருகிறார்கள்? பதில்: பெரும்பாலும் அரசியல் சாக்கடையிலிருந்துதான். கேள்வி: ஆலய உண்டியலில் பணம் போடுவது, ஏழையொருவனுககு அறம் செய்வது. -நற்பயன் தரக் கூடியது? பதில்: ‘நடமாடும் கோயில் நம்பர்க்கொன்று ஈந்தால் அது படமாடும் கோயில் பரமற்கு போய்ச் சேரும் என்கிறார் திருமூலர். ஏழை சப்-போஸ்ட் ஆபீஸ், கடவுள் ஹெட் போஸ்ட் ஆபீஸ். ஏழைக்குக் கொடுத்தால் கடவுளுக்குப் போகும். கேள்வி: தினமும் பூண்டு சாப்பிட்டால் இதய நோய் வராதாமே? பதில்: தொடர்ந்து அதன் நாற்றத்தைச் சகித்துக் கொள்வதில் உறுதிபூண்டு செயல்பட்டுப் பாருங்கள். கேள்வி: இடமிருந்து வலமாக வாசித்தாலும், வலமிருந்து இடமாக வாசித்தாலும் ஒரே வார்த்தையைத் தரும் ‘விகடகவி’யைப் போல் வேறு ஏதாவது? பதில்: ‘தேருவருதே’, ‘மோருபோருமோ’ தமிழில் ஒரு முழுக்குறள் வெண்பாவே இப்படி இருக்கிறது. ‘நீவாத மாதவா தாமோக ராகமோ தாவாத மாதவா நீ’ கேள்வி: அன்னை ஓர் ஆலயம் என்று கூறுவது ஏன்? பதில்: ‘கர்ப்ப’க்கிரகம் அங்கிருப்பதால்... சுஜாதாவை ருசிப்பவருக்காக.... நன்றி : சுட்டு ஃபார்வரட் செய்தவருக்கு🙏😌

Tribute to Intuition829.

Harnessing Intuition for Career Decisions: A Personal Journey In October 1993, I took a significant leap of faith by deciding to move abroad at the age of 48. My destination? The United Arab Emirates. This decision, driven by intuition and a calculated risk, was aimed at securing a better career future. By October1993, I arrived in the UAE, where I spent 16 transformative years before returning in 2009. Reflecting on my journey, it’s clear that intuition played a crucial role. While calculated risks may not always yield the same results today due to intensified global competition, intuition remains a powerful tool for navigating one’s future. For professionals with extensive experience who may feel stalled in their current roles, intuition can guide them towards new opportunities. Even in today’s complex and competitive environment, there are fields where intuition and experience can intersect to create new possibilities. In the realm of global marketing, for instance, there is considerable scope for individuals with a background in areas like pharmaceuticals, risk management, advertising, creative ideas, and print media. These fields continue to offer potential for growth and innovation. Ultimately, while the landscape has changed, intuition coupled with experience can still illuminate paths to new and rewarding opportunities.Today i am happy to register this Intution in my blogs may help people to choose their future.
