Bhadra 1426, August 2019
Vanakkam.
Naandaan Troy. This time I offer some of the the most cool things of
Bhadra 1426’s Agnishatdal, so join me in this look at my favorite
eZine! There’s much to see here!
Let
us begin… Our virtual trip to India*
This
image shows a fair-skinned girl carrying a dish of what could be
spice or even powdered vermillion. It makes goos use of well defined
forms, and shows a nicely subtle variation in the two shades of blue
used.
Bhavabhuti:
I
can imagine that watching this playwright’s dramas when they were
originally performed must have been quite an experience – I think
it a worthy goal for any enterprising time-traveler.
A
Bunch of Hypocrites:
S4
has stern words for the corrupt of society, whose rhetoric serves
only the base political goal of divide and conquer, turning the
people against each other for the benefit of corrupt higher-ups in
ill-gained positions of authority.
Berlin
2 Part 2.5:
Brieuc
continues his mother’s story, of boarding an American-built plane
for a new mission following the Second World War. In the early years
of what would soon become the Cold War, what is going on that the
brass isn’t telling her?
Tenali
Raman turns to sleuthing 2:
Rhagu
continues the tale of our crafty Raman, who investigates the home
claimed in a property dispute between two women. His findings
gathered, what will transpire from this? What will the outcome of
this trial be? Find out, next issue!
Universal
law to receive from:
In
this verse, Dom waxes on the Law of Attraction, a concept that evokes
both great appeal, and great skepticism, to different people at
different times. But this is a very, very nice way to explain it as
an idea!
Bitter
Pill Dose 22: Religion 5:
BP
blasts YouTube anti-theists and their attacks on religion, instead
targeting the darker side of human nature as the rightful enemy
instead. I tend to side with BP on this, though I identify as a
skeptic, these others do not speak for me, nor I for them.
My
Mythology:
Here’s
a piece for Freya’s book, as the first sentence describes, “a
collection of poems inspired by myth and legend,” and well worth
reading! delve into mythical traditions from around the world; you
won’t be disappointed!
Look
for Me Under the Rainbow:
Here’s
another book by Bernard Jan! When a seal pup is endangered by hunters
seeking his pelt, and those of fellow seal pups, will Helen of the
Rainbow warriors be able to save him? Find out!
YouTubia:
Ghost Mother
Hmm.
I’ve checked this out, link below, for this Thai film. It seems to
use supernatural elements combined with psychological suspense, all
in an extremely watchable film, despite my utter ignorance of the
language. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?

Kotakkal
Madhu:
A
Kathakali musician and singer with no shortage of talent and skill.
I’m impressed that he has ample creative ability to truly innovate
for the style. While creativity probably can’t be taught with a
simple cookie-cutter template, I’m convinced that it can be
improved with the right mindset and learning skills, and he’s got
both!
Tom
Hanks:
I
remember seeing Tom in Castaway, and if memory serves me correctly,
he also appeared in the DnD scare movie Monsters and Mazes during the
height of the Satanic Panic of the 1980s. I enjoyed Castaway much
more though, especially the imaginary companion he created by marking
a volley ball with a face as a way to keep himself from going mad
from loneliness during his time on the deserted island!
Pandit
Shiv Kumar Sharma:
The
Authoress presents us with another santoor artist! Finding him online
was a breeze, with a link below. I like the strains his instrument
plays, and seem to have found another software instrument to look for
in GarageBand’s sound library, which I’ve restored to my laptop
proper.
Here’s

True
Treasures: Toni Art and Craft
One
of my current loves is calligraphy, as I strive to make full use of a
medieval memory technique called a visual alphabet, though mine will
be based on the Tamil script, not the Roman alphabet. Toni’s site
looks like the perfect place to jumpstart my progress on the basics
for even better results!
Pieces
of Past: Glimpses – Ancient Religions:
This
is pretty cool, for here, we discuss Egyptian religion, with its
colorful deities and fascinating view of the afterlife. It’s a few
that’s led to astounding architecture, mummification, and a
mystique and magical traditions that captivated the intelligentsia of
Europe for hundreds of years!
Story
from Ved and Purana: Atreya Tirtha
good
stories teach, and this one too has a lesson: never try to copy the
home decor of a god just because you are an envious little git, as
you can very easily irk the wrong beings, like giants and demons, far
outside the qualifications of mere humans to deal with, save perhaps
powerful sorcerers, and of course, gods!
Evil
Teacher:
The
Authoress offers a set of cartoons, here of an unethical and
downright mustache-twirling instructor who turns poor people into
very, very bad people! And here we part! join me next month as I
review Agnishatdal for Ashwin 1426, so until then…
…Vanakkam…
and in abbreviated Soruggon…
Tf.
Tk. Tts!
