We have the hot months of Meena & Mesha before us!


The Sun's longitude is 337 degrees today, 22 03 18, which means Kerala is experiencing the hot, summer season. Temperature has gone upto 34 - 36 degrees. We have the hot months of Meena & Mesha before us. Acute potable water problem in many villages have been reported, due to poor water management. Kerala is in for big trouble, before Edava Pathi dawns on 29th May, when Sun's longitude becomes 45 degrees !

If you know your Moon you can know what the divine forces of Destiny have in store for you.

Lovely Song about Kathakali




Actors are the two legends of Kerala Cinema, Prem Nazeer and Sree Vidya.

Manipravala Thalakal Unarnoo
Manassil kamala dalangal vithirnoo
Kavya Kalayude kanakamgulikalil
Kathakali Mudrakal Vidarnoo !

Manipravala ......................

Verses equalling Ruby ( Mani ) and Coral ( Pravala )
And lotus blossomed in Mind !
From the great Art of Poetry
Rose the Mudras of the King of all Arts ( Kathakali )

Sharat kala megham Thirasselayayi
Sasiklaa Kali vilakkayee
Onnayi Varriyarum
Irayimman Thapiyum
Varna narayangal minukkee

The clouds of Sharath
Became curtain for the play
Moon became the Lamp
Both Variar and Thampi became one
Giving finishing touches to costumes !

Pampayum Periyarum
Bharata puzhayum
Aa padangal paadi
Chaitra marangal aadee !
Chendayil thengilayil
Elathalangil Syamantakangal kilingee

The rivers of Kerala
Bharata puzha, Pampa and Periyar
Sang those beautiful verses
And the trees of Chaitra danced !

Manipravala .....................

Damayantiyayi Droupadiyayi
Devayaniyayee
Kairali Rathiyay Sathiyay
Rambhayay Radhayay
Raasa Natanam Aadi !

As Damayanti, Droupadi
And as Devayani
Magnificent Kerala rose
As Rathi, as Sathi
As Rambha and Radha
She danced the Blissful Dance !

Ratnakireedavumayi Thiranottam Nadathi
Rasa Chakravarthiyam Sringaram..

Manipravala .......................

Madhura Ashtakam




Madhurashtakam, Adharam Madhuram

Here the poet, Vallabha, is playing on the double meaning of the word
Madhura. Madhura is the place of Lord Krishna and it means sweet also !

Adharam Madhuram Vadanam Madhuram Nayanam Madhuram Hasitam Madhuram |
Hrdayam Madhuram Gamanam Madhuram Madhura-Adhipater-Akhilam Madhuram ||1||
 

Sweet are Thy Lips
And thy face too
Glorious Thine eyes
Also Thy Smile
Thy Heart, Thy going
Sweet indeed are They
O Lord of Madhura !
