How we started (Part 2)

[m vishnu]

Here are some more interesting articles posted just before the
creation of Soc.culture.tamil newsgroup.

This include the famonous "divide and conquere" article "Why
Sri lankan Tamil call Indian Tamils Piccaikkaari Tamil" :-(

For those who joined SCT late here is some background information
about the above article. Streneous effort was made by some of those
who described themselves as "Indian Patriots" to prevent the formation
of SCT. Some described a vote for SCT as a vote for the separate
Tamil Nadu. Others employed a even more cunning strategy: An extreme
example of this is the above mentioned article.

enjoy!

From Yellow Sea Scrolls (1-12)
------------------------------------
Introduction :
-------------
[I got from yellow-sea scrolls, a Sanskrit text written millions of
years ago in Camel ink. Dr.Roger Cool studied it carefully using
a Sanskrit-English dictionary published by the renowned scholar
Dr.S.Smitha and asked me to post them. He gave me only the translations
of the first 12 verses. The rest soon follows..]

[I] PANDIAN VISHADA YOGA
-----------------------------------
1. Dorai Sitaram said :-
--------------------
Gathered together at `soc.culture.indian', the newsgroup of junk
articles, what, O, Arindam Ghosh, did my friends against `soc.culture.
tamil' , and Tamil enthusiasts do ?

2. Arindam Ghosh said :-
------------------------
Now seeing the newsgroup `soc.culture.indian' arrayed properly with
junk articles, Ram Devnadhan looked at the terminal and typed these words:

3. Behold, O friends , this creation of a new newsgroup `soc.culture.tamil',
marshalled by Tamil enthusiasts.

4. Here are mighty writers, Srilankan Tamils like Meenan Vishnu to prolific
writers Sundara Pandian and his three friends Vashistha, Vaisnavi and Yogi,
V.Sundar who had written an exposition on Tamil slang.

5. `Thiruppaavai' scholar K.Srinivasan, `Cheers' Chandrasekaran Periannan,
Kannan Subramanian, Maharishi's disciple Raj Sharma and `infinity'
Sivaram Hariharan, the best among writers on Tamil culture and philosophy.

6. The courageous Krishna Raj, the bravo Asokan, Meenan Vishnu -some among
writers of other interests.

7. Know you, O, the best of the confused "pseudo-patriotic" Tamils and Hindi
scholars, Religious fanatics, all those who are our distinguished flame-
writers, the leaders in `soc.culture.indian', I name them for your
information.

8. Your venerable self, Udit Sharma, Sridhar Venkatraman, N.S.Raja, Shyamala
Parameswaran - the editor of over 500 English dictionaries, Pravin
Rathnam -noted feminist, Alok and one of the independent women in the net,
Trina as well.

9. And there are yet other writers in `soc.culture.indian' well-trained in
writing junk articles, who, equipped with manifold foul languages and
signature files, are ready to lay down their lives for flaming others.

10. Multitudinous is our net `soc.culture.indian' marshalled by Subbarao,
but, meagre is the net of theirs marshalled by K.Srinivasan.

11. Now all of you write flames in your respective divisions and protect
Udit Sharma alone from writing, by all means.

12. In order to embolden Ram Devnadhan, Subbarao the mighty S.C.I. oscar
nominee, eminent among the S.C.I. writers, finished a long flame and
posted it atonce on S.C.I.

TAMIL BOOKS IN USA:

From the funds set aside by the US Congress (Public Law 480), US consulates
in India buy books from India and deposit them in different libraries across USA.
The main places where Tamil books are available are University of Texas, Austin;
University of Chicago; University of Wisconsin, Madison; University of Pennsylvania,
Philadelphia; University of California, Berkeley and the Library of Congress,
Washington, D. C. These books can be found using OCLC (Online Computer Library
Center) database available in all the schools. They can be got by making use of
the Inter Library Loan facility. Also, National Union Catalogue
microfiches in any library lists the recent acquisitions.

TAMIL BOOKS IN EUROPE:

Before India achieved Independence, two copies of all books, registered under
Copyright Act, were sent sent to British Museum, London. So that collection is
very good. There are three huge catalogs of Tamil books, 1) Catalogue
of Tamil books in British museum, 1909 (G. U. Pope) 2) Supplementary Catalogue
of Tamil books in the British museum, (L. D. Barnett) 1934(?, I have to check)
3) Albertine Gaur, Second Supplementary Catalogue of Tamil Books in the
British museum, 1980 (details of books collected until 1970).

I have heard from Mr. Thomas Malten of Heidelberg University, Germany that
Koeln Library has 10000 Tamil books. A catalogue for Tamil literature alone
has 3000 books. (Ulrike Niklas, A system for Tamil literature based on the
Subject catalogue of the Janert Koeln Library of Tamil Texts..., Bonn, 1990
746 p.)

Sharing Tamil Books?

Somebody suggested on the net that we can share Tamil books. I can share my
collection of about 200 Tamil books. They are mainly on Old and Medieval Tamil.
My knowledge of Modern Tamil Literature is poor. I read a nice collection of short
stories by Putumaippittan published by National Book Trust.

Subscribing to Good Tamil Magazines?

I want to subscribe to few Tamil magazines from Tamilnadu. I want them to
contain articles on literature, art, architecture, coins, descriptions of
places of interest, epigraphs. I heard that Ki. Vaa. Ja. is no more. Is
still Kalaimakal magazine running? Also I saw some issues of Om Cakti,
a publication from Ms. Sakthi Sugars. It looked pretty decent. Any
suggestions are highy appreciated.

Questions And Answers On Buddhism ( Part 1 )
--------------------------------------------

The following questions and answers have been especially formulated with the
newcomer to Buddhism in mind.

Q: Who was the Buddha?
A: The Buddha was a man who lived some 2,600 years ago and who revolutionised
religious thought in India. This way of thought spread throughout the Eastern
world and has now found its way to the west.

Q: What does the word 'Buddha' mean?
A: The word 'Buddha' stands for the Awakened State (literally it means awakened)
, so it is used in relation to waking up to truth, to becoming enlightened.

Q: What did the Buddha teach?
A: His teaching was extensive. However, it is commonly agreed among all
traditions throughout the Buddhist world, that fundamentally the teaching of
the Buddha is contained in just four truths - the Four Noble Truths.

Q: What are these truths?
A: They are: the truth of suffering; the truth of regarding the cause of
suffering; the truth regarding the cessation of suffering; and the path, the
way we suffer when life does not go our way, when our hopes are dashed, and
when disappointment or tragedy strikes. We also suffered when life does go
our way. Why? Because we fear loss - loss of pleasure, wealth, family or
friends. This is the truth of suffering.

Wishing, wanting, and desiring are the cause of suffering. We produce our
own suffering by the way we think and act.

Because we produce our own suffering, it is within our power not to produce
it, and not to suffer. This is the truth regarding the cessation of suffering
.

The way of life which does not cause suffering is the path; it is the way of
harmlessness, wishlessness, selflessness.

Q: Is there a God in Buddhism as in Christianity?
A: It is very difficult to compare Buddhism with Christianity. One would have to
say, however, there is no God in Buddhism in the way that God in Christianity
is commonly understood.

Q: What do Buddhists believe?
A: Different Buddhists believe different things, but the nature of belief is
itself an important issue in Buddhism. Belief is to be seen as belief, not as
fact. When we see our beliefs as facts, then we are deluding ourselves. When
we see our beliefs as beliefs, then we are mot. Seeing things in their true
light is the most important thing in Buddhism. Deluding ourselves is the
cause of much suffering. So Buddhists try to see beliefs as beliefs. They may
still believe in certain things - that is their prerogative - but they do not
cling to those beliefs; they do not mind or worry about whether their beliefs
are true or not, nor do they try to prove that which they know cannot be
proved. Ideally though, a Buddhist does not indulge in any kind of belief.

Q: Does Buddhism teach reincarnation?
A: Reincarnation is not a teaching of the Buddha. In Buddhism the teaching is of
rebirth, not of reincarnation.

Q: What is the difference between reincarnation and rebirth?
A: The reincarnation idea is to believe in a soul or a being, separate from the
body. At the death of the physical body, this soul is said to move into
another state and then enter a womb to be born again.

Rebirth is different and can be explained in this way. Take away the notion
of a soul or a being living inside the body; take away all ideas of self
existing either inside or outside the body. Also take away notions of past,
present and future; in fact take away all notions of time. Now, without
reference to time and self, there can be no before or after, no beginning
and ending, no birth or death, no coming or going. Yet there is life!
Rebirth is the experience of life in the moment, without birth, without
death; it is the experience of life which is neither eternal nor subject to
annihilation.

Q: Does that mean there is no such thing as birth and death?
A: That which is born, dies. Forms come and go. All that comes into existence is impermanent; it is born and it dies. But the very essence of what 'I' am --
Buddha-nature -- is unborn and undying.

Q: Is this just a Buddhist belief?
A: Buddhists are people and people do believe things, but Buddhism is concerned
with truth, not with belief, and the teaching is to see things as they are.
If we believe anything which has not been experience, we should know what we
are doing. When we do not understand something, then to maintain an open mind
is the healthiest and wisest practice.

Q: But what happens when we die?
A: If we understand what the word 'I' really represents, we can realise the
answer to this question. Buddhism does not offer intellectual answers; it
only gives directions for the experiencing of truth.

Q: How is it possible to experience truth?
A: By understanding that 'I' and birth and death are notions, concepts, ideas,
beliefs. It is the idea of a self living life through time, which produces
the idea of birth and death. We have been conditioned into believing that we
have come into existence and in due course will cease to exist. If we see
through these ideas and realise that this moment neither begins nor ends, we
shall realise deathlessness.

Questions And Answers On Buddhism ( Part 2 )
-------------------------------------------

Q: But how can getting rid of ideas enables us to see deathlessness?
A: The deathless is here all the while, but ideas block it out. It is like the
sun because of the clouds. But as soon as the clouds are cleared away, there
is the sun. Likewise, as soon as ideas are cleared away from the mind, there
is the true state: birthless, deathless.

Q: How does one clear away ideas?
A: By seeing ideas as ideas and not as truths; by being aware of mental and
meditation.

Q: Are there various kinds of Buddhist meditation?
A: There are different exercises taught by teachers of different Buddhist
traditions and Schools. The main differences, however, are superficial ones,
related to psychological or emotional problems. Many of these exercises can
only be administered by experienced meditation teachers. For the average
person, however, whose sole aim is to realise the deep clear teachings of the
Buddha, meditation is a simple process of awareness and investigation.

Q: How does one practise this kind of meditation?
A: By being fully aware, as one thinks, speaks and acts.

Q: But what about sitting meditation?
A: Sitting meditation is the same. It is just a question of being aware. Sitting
meditation is an excellent thing to do, but some people are not able to find
a quiet spot to sit in every day. If this is the case, one is not
automatically debarred from the insights of meditation. To meditate properly
is to do one's duty and to live without wishing life were different, or some-
how better.

The opportunity for seeing truth is ever present, because truth is ever
present. Just because the sun is covered by clouds does not mean the sun is
not there. Conditions are always just right for being aware of the true
situation. All one has to do is be conscious of what is taking place within
one and around one, without making any judgements. If we 'see' by being aware
, then we shall see very deeply into everything.

Q: How does one practise sitting meditation?
A: Sitting meditation is the shutting down of all sense stimuli in order to
realise that awareness is not a function of the senses or of the thinking
process. It is practised by sitting quite still with the eyes closed (or
not focusing on anything), by letting life be, by breathing in and out (not
changing the breath, not trying to breath deeply), by just breathing the way
one always breathes, and by noticing the subtle changes in the mind and in
the body. It is not difficult or complicated.

Q: Does one need to have a meditation teacher?
A: The Buddha's teaching can be the teacher and awareness can be the practice
which will lead straight to liberation.

Q: What is karma?
A: It is cause and effect. When someone commits a crime, he suffers the
consequences. That is karma. When someone does good, he enjoys the
consequences. That is karma. But karma runs deep; its affects our hearts
and minds. From the beginning mind is absolutely pure. If we are unkind,
deceitful, greedy or cruel, we defile that purity. Imagine a plain white
cloth, beautiful, bright and clean. And then imagine someone splattering
it with black ink. The cloth is then spoilt. The mind is like the white cloth
. Like and dislike, greed and hatred, are like the ink splattered across it.
When the mind is unmarked and unspoilt, suffering and enjoyment do not exist.
This is happiness beyond pleasure, beyond karma. All karma is impermanent and
runs out in due course. A Buddhist will learn how to get off the karmic see-
saw of pleasure and pain.

Q: Can anyone see the Truth?
A: The Buddha was compassionate. He did not teach an impossible teaching that
ordinary people could not understand. On the contrary, his teaching was clear
and simple. Anyone who makes the effort to be aware will realise his or her
Buddha-nature and be freed from suffering.

I would like to know why Sri-lankan tamils call Indian tamils as " Pichakkari
tamils" ( i.e; Scavenger tamils ). It is true that Sri-lankan tamils are by and large
more prosperous than Indian tamils. However, it is the Indian tamils who have retained
their cultural roots like music and dance, while most of the Sri-lankan tamils are
"(So called) westernized".

If one is poorer, does it make them Scavenger tamils, Even though we have ratained
our cultural heritage better?

Any Answers ?

Hi,

Plenty of netters argue that we should say NO! to SCT because it would
help some bad elements propaganda their ill willed ideas on LTTE and
DMK. Well, I am neither a supporter of LTTE nor DMK. However I find
immaturity in those who relate such issues to a forum that is aimed
basically to discuss a particular language because *many* of us (I mean
Indians) have very low tolerence limits as far languages go.

Suddenly one finds that LTTE and DMK are unwanted elements. In the case of
LTTE how come one does not realize that it was once allowed in the democratic
land of India to do what all it pleases? It was just not possible to exist
in India without the *great* help of politicians. Everyone knows how
Indian political system functions, at least so far. Now just because it
is banned by present political situations some say that LTTE is unwanted.
How stupid of those who view this way. When India has been blaming other
countries for fostering terrorism in India by allowing training camps etc.,
it was doing the same in the case of LTTE. Where had been these people who
now talk about LTTE, at that time? Why did they keep quite? And now why they
are raising their voice? It is very typical of immatured. Even more when
they relate this to SCT. Now if these persons blame TN politicians for
fostering LTTE, they should be remined that in India the CENTRE always
holds the KEY. So they just can not blame anyone but the entire nation.
What I feel about the whole issue is for whatever reason Indian
government dealt with LTTE, it reflected their inexperience. The
government should have *known* that LTTE uses weapons to convey
their thoughts. So when they dealt with them how come they missed to
note this point. For example if there had been proper security and
checks made at the fateful day, one would not be bashing LTTE this way.
This proves that there is *no* professionalism in their approach. Then
why only blame LTTE and why now? The funny part is that it being
related to SCT.

About DMK, it is yet another political party in India. If people blame
DMK then *all* the political parties in India should be blamed. I do
not think I need to say more on this issue. Calling DMK as fascist
is utter stupidity.

All these reflect how these folks fail to notice the crux of the issue.
I wonder these folks ever understood why SCT came into discussion.
Just telling their views alone does not solve the problem. It is high
time that we *Indians* start viewing our problems in more practical way.

Sai Prabhu.
