Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thiruvalluvar, the author of the Tamil treatise Thirukkural is considered to have lived sometime between 3rd century BC and 1st century AD. Thirukkural perhaps was a fitting reply to a host of conflicting and competing views that existed in Tamil speaking countries of the period on the right way of living, family, religion and governance, supported by various religions that reached the Tamil soil as well as those of indigenous ones and by philosophers who accompanied traders from far off countries. But unfortunately Thiruvalluvar himself did not give interpretation to his tersest couplets. The interpretations presented in 13nth century and earlier, in spite of the noble intention and extraordinary scholarship of the interpreters, I am afraid, understated its universality. Several centuries later, claims and counterclaims were made by the proponents of different religions including Christianity and the latest from atheists. I tried to remove the guise and achieved considerable success in this attempt. Fresh interpretations, which I believe truthfully reflect the thought of Thiruvalluvar, are provided in this book for nearly 360 couplets out of 1330 couplets. This conviction stems from my fresh look at Thirukkural that successfully shed away all the contradictions and unacceptable and unviable constructs it had to live with through the earlier interpretation(s). Thirukkural consists of 133 chapters with 10 couplets in each chapter. Each chapter is a life skill coaching material. They show how to live a soul-evolving life in the three arenas namely family, work and love. A soul which achieves full evolvement through numerous reincarnations reaches puthezhir ulagam (celestial abode). Thank you for buying this book. Contact me if you may at [email protected].

Download or read book TRANSLATING TAMIL POETRY A PRACTICAL APPROACH written by Dr. D. GNANASEKARAN and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contents of this book fall under two sections. Section-I consists of three exhaustive chapters, one in English and two in Tamil, dealing with all aspects of the Art of Translation and also providing an in-depth analysis of the problems of translating texts from Tamil into English in general and poetry in particular. These chapters form a strong theoretical basis for Section-II. Section-II contains select poems of five representative poets of the modern era, namely Na. Pichamurthy, Sirpi Balasubramaniam, Abdul Rahman, Manushya Puthiran and Tamizhachi Thangapandian, and their corresponding translations in English by me with a view to providing a practice-oriented approach to the process of translating Tamil poetry into English. In addition, each poet is briefly introduced highlighting the salient features of their poetry. In my approach, I have tried to be very close to the original texts literally and idiomatically as far as possible, and so consciously avoided more sophistication in translating them. The immediate purpose of this book is to offer certain practical insights into the various aspects of translation and help teachers and students of literature to grasp with ease the nuances of translation through model exercises. At the same time I fondly hope that this book will kindle the interest of anyone who has a natural bent for translation.
Download or read book Spirituality in Thirukkural written by Arcot Sivagnanam Srinath and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-28 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirukkural is a life science scripture. It describes the three essentials of life. Viz dharma, artha and kama. Or righteousness, wealth and bliss. For some reason the fourth purushartha - moksham [salvation] is not described.13 sections discuss about renunciation - but here also the salvation is not directly discussed. One section discusses fate or destiny -- the power of the inescapable happenings.Justice Gokulakrishnan feels that if one follows the ideals of dharma enunciated one can obtain moksham, and therefore it was not written. Some feel he has not written about moksham as he has no personal knowledge about it. Also it is very difficult to explain it to others - as words are not enough to express the personal bliss.In tamil there is a couplet " kandavar vindilar, vindavar kandilar" - meaning " those who have seen have not returned, those who have returned have not seen"The people who have experienced the brahmananda are in a different plane; and cannot return to the worldly plane. They were completely transformed. Those who have returned to this worldly plane have not experienced bliss.
