Dying for Nothing

I used to watch Eelam war from my school days. I used to study all the war news of Srilanka published in Tamil, English news papers and magazines. I read about history and politics of Srilanka to understand Eelam struggle. I knew all about Sinhalese chauvinism and righteousness for tamil self-determination. I knew all the historical events that led to offshoot of violent struggle from non-violence. All these made me a supporter for Eelam cause from my college days. I did support LTTE because there is nobody there to fight for the Eelam in reality. Against my inner self which told that violence cannot succeed on it's own, I too believed that Eelam can be completely achieved by armed struggle. Without any doubt the Tigers too believed it. But they made a mistake. They believed it too much. Whatever obstacles they came across they used arms to shatter it. This led to a single historical mistake which changed the course of eelam war. I can simply say that when Rajiv Gandhi was ...

How not to kill somebody..........?!

Do you know how Hitler murdered Jews in thousands? Do you know how in Gujarat riots Muslims were murdered by Hindus in Hundreds? Do you know how Tamils in SriL anka were killed by neighbouring Sinhalese mobs? Lot of people who killed others in name of religion and ethnicity were first time murderers. Ordinary people like you and me did that. Believe me, Yes. You are capable to do that atrocious act. If you believe in something vehemently without doubt. If you are deconstructed it will not happen. What is deconstruction? Deconstruction is having multiple beliefs. You believe in God but the same time you believe that you came because of evolution. You believe in Horoscopes at the same time you know that they could be fake. You believe in Rama at the same time you know that he might not lived. You are fragmented such that you might not believe in a single truth. How to deconstruct yourself? Its simple.... be aware and doubt any single belief. Deconstruction is nothing but maturity in mi...

Depth (poem)

எல்லா கண்களும் பூக்களின் மேலே... நீர் தேடிச் சென்ற வேர்களின் ஆழம் மண்ணுக்கு மட்டுந்தான் தெரியும்... ( All eyes are wondering, how beautiful the flowers are... But only the earth knows, how long the roots are... which penetrated the soil, looking for water )

Identity crisis...Are you a Tamil ?

Are you a Tamil... then you are a terrorist... First I will tell you a story. There was a Srilankan Tamil in Colombo. He had a high post in Sinhalese government. He is educated abroad and from wealthy family. He never felt that he is a Tamil. He stayed apart from Tamil politics. During the 1983 riot every Tamil family in Colombo was attacked. The Sinhalese mob had voter list in their hand. From voter list they found Tamil names and the address. They killed thousands and raped hundreds like this. Our highly educated pro-government guy was also attacked. He pleaded to the rioters that although he is Tamil he always worked with Sinhalese. The rioters did not listen. They stabbed him and molested his wife. The moral of the story is even though you did not identify yourself as a Tamil, the enemies will consider you as a Tamil. The moral is not just a moral. It is very real. Do you know why the Srilanka navy shoots Indian fisherman? Do you know why the Pakistan navy never shoot Indian fis...

கற்றது கை மண் அளவு

கடல் போல பரவுகிறேன்... என் கரை நெடுக இரைச்சலிடும் பேரலைகள். குளம் போல இருந்திருக்கலாம் சிறிதே எனினும் அமைதியாய் ! (English meaning) Ignorance is bliss My knowledge is like a sea; it grows daily...As I know a lot of things, I got confused and lost my peace...like a sea which roars at shores. If I might have been like a pond. Although I am small..I might stayed so calm.

இயங்கியல்

நடந்து போ... பறந்து போ... இயலவில்லையெனில், ஊர்ந்தாவது போ... நகராமல் மட்டும் நிலைத்து விடாதே!! (Meaning in English) Kinetics stroll or fly... If you can't give creeping a try. never... never... ever stay rooted in the same place...
