What would I do without a mind?
What would I do without a society to shape that mind?
To influence it?
To taint it?
To glorify it?
What would I do without the memories of such glory and such tache?
An orphan on a deserted island, with nothing from the outside world, save the produce of Nature which surrounds me.
I suppose I would be free....
An auspicious day with silent flames and ancient clay lamps peaceful and lovely. Wish your family and you too a very happy Karthikai Deepam..
I truly miss Madras for its captivating, noiseless and sattwic ways of celebrating Navratri with singing little girls, Golu or Kolu as it may be called and of course Sundals of myriad varieties, Ganesh Chaturti with the unpainted mud Ganesh with the red and black cute seeds as eyes, the humble erukkambu flowers and arugampul His favourite offerings from us, and of course this beautiful quiet festival Karthikai.
