`Wealth` which Sages use

செல்வம் - Wealth;

Today we are going to discuss about wealth and who were richest people of ancient times. When we say wealth the quickest thought comes to mind is `money`. Unless one has knowledge, they can only understand "money is only wealth". `Knowledge about self and society` bring one to a different altitude and those will understand there are different Wealths. Pre-historic mankind had different wealth. When we use chisel down technique then we can see the Ancient society very clearly. Let us chisel down governments one by one, When we chisel down India we get British, When we chisel down British we get Nayakars and Palayams, When we chisel down Nayakars we get Nawabs, When we chisel down Nawabs we get we get Vijayanagar rulers, When we chisel down Vijayanagar rulers we get Later cholas & pandyas, When we chisel down Later cholas & pandyas we get eary cholas & pandyas, When chisel down them we get Imperum Kaapiyangal times, When we chisel down Imperum Kaapiyangal we get a society which wrote grammer to the Tamil language, When we chisel down the society we get mankind who traded in sea, When we chisel down traders we get farmers, When we chisel down farmers we get predators from stone age. Survival is the Knowledge at these times. So `ultimate knowledge` one should acquire is not money but survival skills. Slowly from stone age to medival age, when we look at there is a better Grand father with knowledge. Even before grammer was written for a language, there were listening skills which made one to become a better Grand father. Writing skill had only materialize what one has thought and experienced, those were fact and knowledge at these times. What stone age society thought as wealth? What farmer society thought as Wealth? What trader society thought as wealth? What medival age society thought as wealth? What millenials thinks as wealth? `what is wealth` varies in all the time. For poor, ways to become rich is wealth. For rich, ways to give to society becomes wealth. At all ages these two principle will not change. What one think as wealth makes him/her self. 

Looking at medivel times with this idea, count how many temples are in south india. Temples in south india > temples in north india. The society in south india were the richest and wealthiest community of Indian sub continent. If you ask a civil architect to estimate the construction cost of the temples in south india, today it will be measured by money. But if you understand the chiseling technique and estimate the wealth of the community, then you can understand, who are the richest? So having dozens of bitcoin doesn't make you rich it only helps you to survive and it is not wealth. Definition of wealth varies time to time. For all the time, `wealth which is supreme` varies but the medium doesn't change which is told in Thirkkural ages before.

Wealth of wealth is wealth acquire be ear attent; Wealth mid all wealth supremely excellent 

- Thirukkural (411)

Sailing with Dravida Krishna

Today we are going to discuss about how this historical events are rewritten as mythology. The famous belief of Indian history starts from Indus valley civilization. But I am against it. I believe Sangam age existed and it can be older than what we think as history of India. So let me try to pull some point which I have come across reading these days. Sanskrit texts says Manu a Dravidian saved the humanity. And it says there were previous Manus before him. So this gets us into mythology than historical events, because we haven't found any archeological evidence of the Cities mentioned by Sangam texts. But I have few different perspective. When Manu brought his citizens from South he should be geographically different skin because people in Tropical would have different skin and people from Equator region would have different skin tone. When mythological Krishna is depicted as dark skin person then this historical events can be linked to say that Krishna is a Dravidian that's why tropical region people have seen him having different skin tone and mentioned him. The story of Mahabharatam has many events that will fail the test of science. And it was written very very later than the historical event. Because when the under water city of Dwaraka was found near Gujarat many people started believing that Mahabharatam was true historical events and it dates 9500yrs old. So we will also believe Mahabharatam is historical event. But since it was written much later than it happen we can relate to the neighbouring civilization and understand few things. If the dates are pushed to 9500yrs back then we could see Memphis existed during that period. Egypt was at their peak of civilization. And their scripts are in the form of symbols. So if we start believing Historical Krishna then what about the people and kingdom near to him? that makes they were also existed historically and their scripts would have been like symbols(may or may not). But we find the original Mahabharatam written in Sanskrit first which is readable in current day too. This makes us understand that Mahabharatam would have happened during a time when the clans was using symbols still to communicate. 

If you want to relate Mahabharatam as historical then you should link Gauravas as Kuravar and Pandavas as Pandiyar. Only when you take this prespective you can continue travel historical else you will remind in mythology. Yes this is a battle between Kuravar clans and Pandiyar clans in Dravida nadu. We should understand few realities then we can understand my point of view. Sanskirt scholars had practise of writting the historical events as mythology. To merge with the existing world they always change the names to existing world and merge with mythology. That's how the historical names gets into different form. All tamil names will get changed to mythological names. If you look at Mahabharatam as historical events then 2 references can be related and understood.

1. Thuthuveni, Newspaper rock utah.

When we see this rock painting and their culture and names you can relate them to Tamil and see a connection. But if you see from a mythological lens you will miss many. These clans call themselves as Hopi and their gods name is Kachana. We know the story of gopis and krishna. If Krishna is historical and they lived in a time where symbols were used to communicate then you can connect to Hopi clan where gopis as Hopi and Krishna as kanchana. And this is found in current central America and well protected. You can think why and how people would have traveled that long. is it possible? I will highlight a prespective that can create a belief in you to believe there is a possibility to reach there. So remember Krishna was a Dravida and he advocated not to offer prayers to Indra he had his own commanments which was little different to what was practised at his time.

2. Sembavalam, Heo Hwang Ok - Korean.

This is an event mentioned in Korean history that their king married a princess who came from India. They mention that she came from Ayuth Kingdom via sea. So when people were able to travel to Korean peninsula then they had enough technology to travel to any part of the world. Since this is very old people at that time whoever come from different land they consider them as god and worship them. Koreans of Kim clan consider her as God. I have shown many reference about the similarities between Tamil and Korean language. Since she was a queen she would have obviously influence over the clan than a normal person. Thats why you could see many word and meaning are similar between these languages.

When we can take history to back in 9500yrs old period. This geography and Kingdoms had different boundries and different languages. When you find the Dwaraka near Gujarat then you should understand that these dravida people were spreaded from Indus to equator region. There are mentioning of Kapatapuram in Ramayana where second Tamil sangam happened. And true historians read and locate the ancient lanka near Kapatapuram and not the current Srilanka(this is a mythology) There were period in history where River Thamaraprani flowed inside Srilanka there were no sea in between them. Lanka is just a measurement to locate the place in ancient times. Since this mythology was written in Sanskrit first it was related to their world names. Ancient India was very different than what we think. With Tamil we can travel back to historical period in ancient India but with Sankrit we can construct the mythology. So when you want to take a step to connect to ancient India then we need to read and learn about Tamil history.

Legacy of Pallava Dynasty

These 2 Nandhivarman have changed my thinking pattern about Kings. We will talk about Nandhivarman 2, to understand this we need to know why these old time leaders have gone to Kambujadesam to bring their King. Few generations before their ancestors had 2 brothers. Elder one crowned as King of Pallava Kingdom from Kanchipuram and younger moved to current Laos region and formed Kambujadesam and ruled there. When Parameswaravarnam a Pallava King was killed by Vikramadhithya 1 in battle field, he died without heir. So the elderly leaders decided to travel to Kambujadesam. They brought a 13 year old boy to Kanchipuram and named Nandhivarman and gave the Kingdom. I want to understand more about what kind of laws they would had and what kind of education these people have undergone. I want understand the Tamil wisdom. They had a relationship with southeast Asia even before Rajendra Chola. This incident connects the dots how did Cholas know about கிழக்கு சீமை, Siam, Kadaram, Kambujadesam and had closer relationship. 

When we talk about Nandhivarman 3, we need to study நந்திக் கலம்பகம் and it is special in history books. This King want to hear Tamil poem couplets and died for this reason. The King came to know about the new கலம்பகம் and want to taste the nectar of the poem. When he had a desire to listen the Tamil couplets, the poet told conditions that he should arrange his own death bed and die listening to the last couplet. The below Tamil couplet was the one the King listened and after listening he accepted the death. I don't understand what kind of thought process those ancestors had to choose death for Tamil poem couplets. This history is out of the world.

These Ancestors had blood relations with Southeast Asian Kingdoms. Now it is clear how these people wrote யாதும் ஊரே, யாவரும் கேளிர். The Pallavas created their own script and that is called Pallava Grantha and for these reasons we should understand the connection between Khmer with Pallava Grantha. I have given enough proof on the topic tamils were around the world. These dots will support the Theory of aliens were around. By these links the number system (yen) was given to the world by tamils. 

Mamallapuram or Mahabalipuram is one of the tourist spot of Thondaimandalam which is the current Chennai city. The shore temple is declared as UNESCO world heritage site. Pancha Rathas is an example of monolithic South Indian rockcut architecture. 

Sandras or Sathurangapattinam located on coromandel coast of India in Kanchipuram. This town area was very old and renovated and rebuilt by Dutch in 17th century, The magnificent Sandras Fort was built by Dutch. At present this place is home to Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research. 

Based on the scriptures, Amarar Kalki wrote Sivagamiyin sabatham which displays the lives of Pallavas, their under construction work of shore temple and battle with Chalukyas.

New India vs Old Europe

I always thought India is equivalent to Europe. Many will agree with me. There are lot of country in world which are smaller than Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and compared to many other states in India. These Indian states are different in their culture but have similarities, speak different languages but somewhat similar by scripts and pronunciations. As Europe is divided into countries, India was also divided by different countries. As in Europe there are Princes, Here also there are old Palaces and lost Princes. It is New India and Old Europe. There are many similarities between Europe and India. But always Winners write Histories. Since Europeans ruled us for 2 centuries we still look up to them in all means. World is changing in all means. World is becoming a global village. How do we look at learning something of no use and no value in the market. That is how our identities are going. Our identities are losing values. Our language, our science, our Ayurveda, our Siddha, our culture.

Unless we use them we are going to lose them and its value goes down. When we understand this that our identity has value then we will protect it. Then we will join hands to preserve it. Our ancestors have build the set of practices looking at the past, how few clans vanished over time. Our culture are built to protect the root of this civilization. And there are very handful of people protecting it and rest of them do not have this education and play no part in the protection. Learning some ancient art, knowing few regional history atleast about medieval age, visiting some heritage places, using Ayurveda & Sidhha will make us connected to the past. Though a simple Indian life can make you feel like a Prince of the land. India is equivalent to Europe.

Tamil Cities in World map

தமிழின் உலகமயங்கும் வாழ்ந்தவன் என்ற வரலாறுக்கு சான்றுகள். As I believe there was a old civilization which was high tech and rich enough to travel across the continents, here is a proof of it. People still think from the Western Indologists perspective. People think from a Western ideas perspective only. People don't think our tamil scientists as knowledgeable person. when I go and talk to people about the proof of this scientist, people tell me that "உங்க ஊர் ஆலு அத்தான் உணர்ச்சிவசப்பட்டு பேசர".
