love u all
Thank s
Shan
I am so happy to hear that a road is named after Thiru Valluvar.
Thnks to all who helped this to happen.
With Warm Regards,
Senthil T.
Valluvar, usually known as Thiruvalluvar wrote Thirukkural, covering all aspects of Life. It is an SOP for Meaningful, Effective and Joyful Living. We, in Voice of Valluvar Family sincerely thank everyone, who is involved in this noble work.
The ancient Indian philosopher-saint Valluvar is one of the best moralists ever walked the earth. His sole work, the Kural text, is written on the foundations of ahimsa and is among the best non-violent, secular ethical works ever written. It's great to see his name etched in the Western hemisphere.
I thank each and everyone who made this happen. Its a honour to Tamil soil.
A person who lives his life in the way of Thirukural, can be one with God - the eternal source.
Great.
George Uglow Pope, or G. U. Pope, was an Anglican Christian missionary and Tamil scholar who spent 40 years in Tamil Nadu and translated many Tamil texts into English. His popular translations included those of the Tirukkural. This is available through Amazon for those interested.
Feel proud about it.
