Tamil is not just an ancient language of the world but also a language of Gods. It is believed that Tamil language is born out of pellet drum which fell from Lord Shiva while he was dancing. Another School of thought is that Lord Muruga created Tamil: Madras HC @THChennai
As per mythology, Lord Shiva presided over the first academy (First Tamil Sangam). It is believed that Lord Shiva played Thiruvilayadal to test the knowledge of Tamil poets. The above would
only mean that Tamil language is connected with Gods: Justices N Kirubakaran (since retd)
When it is connected with Gods, it is a Godly language. Such a Godly language has to be used while performing Kudamuzhuku of temples: Court
Not only in Pasupatheshwarar Temple in Karur, but throughout the country, all the temples should be
consecrated by reciting Tamil Thirumurai and other hymns composed by saints like Alwargal and Nayanmargal, apart from Pattinathar, Arunagirinathar etc: Judges
If Tamil hymns cannot be used in the temples located in Tamil Nadu, nowhere else it can be used. It is stated that King Raja Raja
Chozhan retrieved Thirumurais and brought it to Periya Temple in
procession by placing them on Elephant. Such was the importance given to Tamil.
Since Raja Raja Chozhan was instrumental in retrieving Tirumurais, he is popularly known as “Thirumurai Kanda Chozan."
When that is the position, it is not understandable, how the practice of reciting Tamil slowly vanished in Tamil Nadu: Court
TN Government should form a committee & fix the date from which Kudamuzhuku will be conducted in Tamil or equal importance is given along with Sanskrit. The Committee should be
reconstituted periodically so that if any other worthy hymns are found,
they could also be recited
