Ammaiappan


Yet another day!

Let us be thankful for the gift of this day.

And make the most out of it

for us and for all around us.


Some of you must be wondering at

the name of this blog: 'AMMAIAPPAN'.

It is a Tamil name

meaning Mother and Father.


God is often called Ammaiappan.

It is in line with

the 'arthanaareeshwara' concept.

That means God is half feminine!


Another reason for this name is

my parents: Lenammai and Arulappan.

Parents are our 'Kankanda Deivam'

that is, gods seen here and now.


"Thaayir chiranthathoru koyilum illai."

No temple better than one's mother.

"Thanthai sol mikka manthiram illai."

No prayer is above the words of one's father.


Smile, have a good day!


See you later.
