I learnt to write e-mail in tamil

Over this week end I learnt to write e-mail in Tamil.

How did I do it ?

I am having a Firefox web browser. I searched Tamil font that is supported by Firefox browser.Here is the link:

Tamilkey Firefox extension is an utility to enable Tamil typing in any website or email using Firefox and Thunderbird.

The latest version of Tamilkey (0.3) has been released to the Tamil community and can be downloaded from http://tamilkey.mozdev.org/installation.html

Use a Tamil e-mail editor to type Tamil e-mail

For example:
  • Go to http://QuillPad.in/tamil/
  • Select Tamil
  • Click Send as e-mail

Temple


Livermore temple

My parents planned to go to Livermore
temple. I wondered how a temple at
U.S. would be. I visited the web page of the temple to get some information about it. I found in the calendar that an abishegam for Lord Muruga was scheduled for the day at about 5 pm. I asked my mom if we could go for the abishegam. She said it might not be possible because it would get too dark in the evening and today being a rainy day it is better to get back home during the day time. I was disappointed. But by the time we started from home it was 4 pm because my Dad unexpectedly took us to Wall mart in the noon.

When we stepped int the temple I was surprised and happy to see the abishegam for Lord Muruga. At the end of abishegam the Lord was dressed beautifully with Viboodhi (ashes). It was good to hear Kandar Sashti Kavasam there.

The temple is Siva Vishnu temple and hence the main deities are Siva and Vishnu (Balaji). The decorations for Siva and Vishnu was gorgeous and I could not move away my eyes from them.

There are Praharams for Lord Ganesha, Parvathy, Lakshmi, Andal, Krishna-Radha, Rama-Sita-Lakshman-Hanuman, Navagragha, Hanuman.

We had our cousin's family and our family friend with us there. We gave the first rice food (annaprasnam) for my baby brother who is 7 months old.

There is a mandapam and a library at the back of the temple. There is also a garden where there were banana tress and flowering plants. We had prasadams which was almost like a dinner with lemon rice and sweet pongal.

I could not get a clear view of the Gopuram and around temple area because of poor lighting and rain. I would like to go back to the temple once during the day time.

My cousin sister

She is a small girl of age three,
Her backyard has an apple tree.
She love ice creams,
Sometimes she screams,
She loves Vishvesh,
She calls him as Bishbesh,
She loves to kiss him,
She loves to come too close,
She is cute,
And she remains quiet,
She is obedient,
And nods her head prettily ,
She has a brother ,
Who never bothers.

Pre - pre - pre - pretty

God exists in all forms,
God is in human- kind,
God is in natural & unnatural things,
God is in visible & invisible things,
Any good deed by any one is godly deed.

God is everywhere.
