The artistry displayed by the female folks of the village deserves a bow! There are 96 agraharams in the entire district out of which 18 are situated within the heart of Palakkad Town. Nurani agraharam is very very popular for it's Shastapreeti and the natives

Once Narasaiyar, deep in debt, was forced to borrow, but his efforts to find a lender were in vain. He approached Ramabadra Moopanar of Kapisthalam, a wealthy

1

and generous music connoisseur. After enjoying Moopanar’s warm hospitality for a few days, he gently broached the purpose of his visit.

“I have incurred some unexpected expenditure. I feel greatly inhibited about asking anyone for money, but then I remembered you.

2

I thought I might get a loan from you."

“Loan? How much do you need?” asked Moopanar.

“Eighty sovereigns,” replied Narasaiyar.

“You say you want a loan. Will you pledge anything as security?” asked Moopanar.

“Yes, I will,” said Narasaiyar, after some thought.

Max and his wife Maxi received a letter from their daughter who had gone to study "Modern Biochemistry" overseas.
She wrote, "My beloved parents, I miss you so much and it breaks my heart to think that by the time I get back,

1

you will be so old.

Therefore, I am enclosing a bottle of a red potion that I have invented. It will make you 5 years younger, and so when I return, you will be the same age as I left you. Please, take only a drop. Goodbye I love you!"

2

They opened the envelope and found the bottle with the red potion.

Max looked at his wife and said, "You go first."

Maxi took a drop and when she indeed turned 5 years younger, Max immediately did the same.
Years later, the daughter returns home to find her mother...

Did u know this part of the history of #Kerala ?

It happened when the biggest and the most valuable company in the history of the world was brought down (among other things) by a royal Malayali from India.

#Thread On #Stolen #Artefacts

Todays restitution of 10 stolen artefacts to Tamil Nadu is an historic occasion and is the result of a complex global investigation arising out of work done by a citizens activist group - The India Pride Project.

1

Each of these restitutions were complex cases and the lessons from these will yield results for future restitution cases not just for Tamil Nadu but for other States and countries.

Though these 10 objects are returned from two countries - America and Australia,

each of them are unique cases starting from when they were stolen from India, smuggled out and eventually landed up in some of the most prestigious museums and collections there.

During this journey of life, where do we put our attention and where should we put it.

Once upon a time, two men embarked upon a journey. They met each other during the trip, and while talking they discovered that both had the same destination,

1

so they started travelling together. After seven days of traveling together, when the time came for both of them to go their own way, one said to the other : "Brother! We have stayed together for a week, did you recognize who I am?" The other responded, "No, I did not."

The first traveler said : "Brother, I am a famous thief but you are an even greater thief than me. You turned out to be ten steps ahead of me."
