நல்லதொரு துவக்கம். ஒரிஜினலும் வேண்டும், கருத்துக்கூற. ஆச்சான் பிள்ளை வார்த்தைகளை தனித்து அளிக்கவும். சாவதானமாக எழுதுகிறேன்.

I intend to translate and discuss some selected sayings from a book of the 13th century AD. It  is Varthamalai, meaning "The Garland of Sayings'. It is an anthology by the great Pinbazhagiya Perumal Jeer. He has also written the famous AaRayirappadi Guruparamparaa Prabhavam, an hagiographical record of the Guruparampara of Sri Vaishnavism. 

This anthology reminds me the two-volumed The Garland of Philip. Also in the complete works of Aristotle, he has attempted some 'anthological' record of ancient anecdotes and sayings. So in any great culture, it is natural that some attempts in collecting and preserving the great sayings should have happened. 

You can read it fully in the following link

Your merciless criticisms are solicited, especially with regard to the language style and communicability. 

Thank you
