Book Description
People show great interest in animal stories and anecdotes. Newspapers also publish incredible stories about animals and birds now and then; but they are not new. Even poets of Tamil and Sanskrit literature have recorded what they saw in real life. The poets used some of them as similes and others in their poems. From Vedic days Hindus have been observing nature and used them to teach lessons to people; There are several Subhasitas (golden sayings) in Sanskrit using animals. I have collected lot of such stories from literature and newspapers; bird omens are also believed in many cultures. Some birds like Bhulinga, Kulinga and Homa are yet to be identified and they may have become extinct. Hindus are unique in carrying gods on idols of animals and birds. It shows their continuous interest in living beings.

Book Description
Manu Smriti, the Hindu Law Book, is the oldest law book in the world. It is older than Hammurabi’s law book. I have given the details for my dating in this book. Manu Smritis is not followed anywhere in India now or earlier. But all ancient Tamil and Sanskrit authors have praised Manu Neeti (Manu’s Justice). Though we have more than 20 Hindu law books, Manu being the first, everyone praised it as a model book.

Book Description
This is the second part of my views (a sort of commentary) on the controversial Manu Smriti. No one has the authority to criticize or appreciate it unless one reads it in full. But politicians show them as half baked fellows when they make comments without reading it in full. This second part has more interesting tit bits from the smriti.

Book Description
As an ardent Hindu and amateur historian, I always looked for some Hindu links or Hindu influence. When I saw Roman and Greek monuments and sculptures, I noticed a lot of Hindu impact on them. The Lion Throne is a common word used in Hindu stories. I saw proper, but huge, Lion thrones in Rome Museum. Hindu Swastika symbol also was visible very much on pots and urns.

Book Description
Sangam Tamil books are at least 2000-year-old; chronologically Tamil stands next to Sanskrit in India; though 6000 year old Vedas are still available and recited in all the temples and Vedic Schools, Tamils have lost many of their ancient works. But fortunately, we see the continuity of Vedic thoughts in Tamil Sangam books; they are 18 in number. There is another grammatical treatise Tolkappiam which is considered older than the 18 books. We see full-fledged Hinduism in it. The book mentioned Vedic Gods as the Gods of the Tamils. I have been writing about it from 2011. This book has some of the articles on this topic.

Book Description
Animal stories are very interesting and inspiring; they have been used by the Hindus for thousands of years to teach some morals. Mahabharata, Ramayana and later Hitopadesa and Pancha tantra have lot of fables. Vishnu Sarman of Panchatantra used those stories to teach political science to the dullest boys of a king and succeeded. Thus the stories spread to different parts of the world.

Book Description
This is a book that explodes old theories on linguistics and languages. I have been doing research in languages and linguistics for over 40 years. I have found that even Avestan in Persia (now Iran) is following the same rules as Tamil. Sanskrit language’s relation to European languages is well known. I have found some new rules that show Sanskrit and Tamil have originated from same source. Any word from any old language can be traced to Tamil or Sanskrit. Only problem is to find out patiently the missing links to trace them.

This is the third part of my collection of anecdotes from an old book of anecdotes. I have not written anything. I have only compiled them. It will be very useful for party goers. The beauty of the book is that the anecdotes are arranged topic wise. Students may use this book for essay writing. Anecdotes regarding doctors, salesmen, sportsmen, politicians, authors, producers and other people from various walks of life are covered in this part.

Book Description
This is a Book of Quotations with a difference. I have selected over one thousand quotations mainly from Hindu scriptures. I have included books from Sanskrit and Tamil languages. Most of the quotation books have more foreign quotations than Hindu quotes. It is very rare to see Kalidasa or Tamil Tiruvalluvar in such books. I have given quotations from Dr. Radhakrishnan, Vedas, Upanishads and Tamil ethical works.
