The Tamil community should regard Thiruvalluvar, Kambar an Bharaathiar as their most inspiring leaders and personalities. Nevertheless, they were celebrated as great poets and philosophers.
If the Tamil community had followed the human values, lessons from the lives and teachings of Thiruvalluvar, Kambar and Bhaaradidaasan, the Tamil community would have been more successful and achieved greater heights.
Kambar is the emperor of poems who gave us the great epic, Kambaramayanam, a Tamil retelling of Ramayana.
Kambaramayanam prevails not only as a famous epic but also as a crown of social cohesion, and treasury of Tamil culture, said the Member of Parliament for Tapah and Deputy President of MIC while delivering his speech at Kambar Vila in Colombo, last evening.
Kamban Ramayanam is infused with rich poetry, deep emotion and cultural nuances.
At the Colombo Kamban Vila chapter, Saravanan spun magic with his oratory skills. The packed audience were thrilled by his gravelly voice and blazing oratory.
