திருக்குறள் - All time favourite book


எனக்கு தெரிஞ்ச வரைக்கும் எல்லோருக்கும் பிடிச்ச ஒரு புக் என்றால் அது திருவள்ளுவரின் திருக்குறள் தான். நான் பெங்களுரூல படிச்சதனால எங்களுக்கு திருக்குறளின் மஹிமை தெரியாது. ஆனா என் கணவர் தமிழ் நாட்டுல படிச்சதனால அவருக்கு ரொம்போ ரொம்போ பிடிச்சது திருக்குறள் தான். இப்போ எல்லாம் தினம் இரண்டு குரலாவது படித்து வருகிறேன்.அதை படிக்கும் போது தான் தெரிகிறது திருவளுவர் எவ்வளவு யோசித்து எழுதி இருக்கிரார் .அவர் எழுதாத விஷயமே கிடையாது. நான் படிச்ச குரளிளேயே எனக்கு ரொம்ப பிடிச்ச குறள் மட்டும் உங்க கிட்ட பகிர்ந்துக்கபோறேன்.

Note :I am sorry I am taking a very long time to write in Tamil. Please excuse me as this is my first post in Tamil and shall try writing posts like this.

There are so many topics covered in the book. I was impressed by whatever I have read and I would surely insist on everyone to go through this site and see the English translation if it is not clear.

Hi Sivakumar,

The spelling mistakes happen because of the browser. Here is the extract from Google site.

5. How do I install and view Tamil fonts correctly?

If you use Internet Explorer 6+ in Windows Vista/XP/2000, you should have no problems in viewing and editing Tamil text correctly. Mozilla Firefox requires support for complex text layout, otherwise it might display the Tamil text incorrectly. The support for complex text layout is usually turned off by default, but this Wikipedia article gives a detailed explanation on how to turn it on in various operating systems.

Kavi is doing a great job ...let he r continue :)
