Tamil – Tradition – Culture
Our ancestors were not fools.
Among the food grains they created nine grains called Navathanyas.
They also placed nine planets called Navagrahas as lords of grains:
Grain – Chandran (Moon)
Wheat – Sooriyan (Sun)
Thuvarai – Sevvay (Neptune)
Lentils – Puthan (Mercury)
Chickpea – Guru
Mochai – Sukkiran (Venus)
Sesame – Sani (Saturn)
Uludu – Rahu
Kollu – Ketu
The Tamilian who constructed the Navathaniyas as nine divided the directions into eight:
East
West
North
South
North East
North West
South East
South West
The Tamilian who divided the direction into eight, he divided the music into seven tones:
Sa – Re – Ka – Ma – Pa – Tha – Nee
The Tamilian who gave music tones, he divided the taste into six:
Sweet
Bitterness
Corp
Sour
Salty
Astringent
The Tamilian who divided taste into six, he divided the land into five parts:
Kurinji (Hills)
Mullai (Forest area)
Nejthal (Sea area)
Marutham (Water and land)
Palai (Dry region)
The Tamilian who divided the land into five parts, he divided the air into four parts:
Thendral
Vaadai
Kodai
Kondal
Wind blowing from the east:
Kondal
Wind blowing from the south:
Thendral
A wind blowing from the west:
Kodai
A wind blowing from the north:
Vaadai
The Tamilian who divided the air into four parts, he divided the language into three:
Eyal
Isai
Nadaham
The theory of Muthamil reveals that these three elements are equivalent to Tamil.
The Tamilian who divided the language into three, he divided life into two:
Agam (Inner)
Puram (Outside)
A life lived by husband and wife – inner life.
All outside business and self-discipline – outside life.
The Tamilian who divided his life into two, he put discipline in one:
He put discipline alone and he placed it above the creature.
This is what Ayyan Valluvar beautifully said in two lines:
“Discipline will awaken
Discipline is more than life.”
He created yoga to keep the body alive by adhering to it.
“Shri Chakra” is nowhere, it is imprinted in our body. It is what we can feel in the picture below…
