Peace!!!!

This week was bad with Katrina wrecking havoc in peoples lives, and 1000 people died in the stampede in Iraq. Never quite seem to understand, how so many people can die. Worst of all, most of the people affected are from the poorest sections of society.

All I have been doing today is checking about the situation in areas affected by Katrina. Comparing the reaction of the people, when Asia was affected by Tsunami, namma makkal lots of patience.
Namma makkalukku kashatapattu kashtapattu marathu pochu ninaikkiren.

"Shanthi nilava vendum" is a beautifully worded song by Sethumadhavarao, and was supposedly composed as soon as the Mahatma was killed.


Ragam: Tillang
Composer: Sethumadhavarao

"Shanthi Nilava Vendum (Engum) (Atma)—
Shakthi Onga Vendum Ulagile
Gandhi Mahatma Kattalai Adhuve
Karunai Ottrumai Kadiroli perave
Kodumai chai theeyor manam adhu thirundha
Nargunam adhu pugatriduvom
Madamai acham aruppom makkalin
Mashila nal ozhukkam valarpom
Dhidam tarum ahimsa yoginam thanthai
Atmanandham perave
Kadamai maravom avar kadan theerpom
Kalangamin aram valarppom"



All of you guys have a nice weekend, for those in the US nice holiday weekend.
