Something Intersting...

Posted by Veena Shivanna (Bengalooru, India) on 17 April 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual.

I love proverbs, I grew up hearing them all along. It makes the conversation so catchy & meaningful.. Took this snapshot from our viveknagar school.

Great - it reminds me of my kannada lessons way back from high school. We had a kannada teacher who was big on such gaadhe / nudimuththugalu.

I forgot to bring some of those books when I was in India last year - since then i have been searching kannada material on internet. Are there any online resources I can find. specially to start with aksharamaale, ithyaadhi? I would like to have these things started for our 26mo old daughter :)

thanks

You know "Tannarive tanage guru" "your conciousness is your leading light" is my all time favorite sentence. Taught to me my Mystic grand-dad ; it has remained my own my way of life.
I studied in remote place in Hassan. I used to write these sentences on Blackboard everyday. Kind of bought me back memories of life.
