u wouldn't have made even the wildest guess that i am gonna write about "HER"-the divine lady.even now,no prizes for guessing who she is.this piece is about YASHODHA- whom i call the divine mother.
YASHODHA!!-does AAYARPAADI,GOKULAM,NANDAKOPAN,GOPIKAS,VENNAI come to your mind on hearing her name?then u r right--it's SHE- the lucky lady who had the blessing of bringing up LORD KRISHNA.she didn't give birth to HIM~yet she made the most beautiful part of Krishna's life-his childhood.i am one among those who fascinate "KUTTI" Krishna and his pranks- "LEELAIS".she is a lovely soul-more so,a blessed soul.highly gifted!who else will ever get a chance to be so close to the divine lord?how marvellous her motherhood would have been?she felt her child was special to her--not knowing that she was so special to HIM that he made her his mom:) who else can beat him,scold him,tie him up with the "ural" when he stole butter from other homes?
கண்ணனை- உரலில் கட்டி,வாய்ப் பொத்தி கெஞ்ச வைத்தாள்!
can any one dream of even doing that to krishna?she took pleasure in watching him growing up-the mother of a naughty kid.there was no limit to his naughtiness!!a perfect தீராத விளையாட்டுப் பிள்ளை....he was the child of not only yashodha--but the whole of gokulam:)she got mesmerised in his music-those melodies that came from his flute,played with those tender lips,soft and subtle!she was awestruck when he showed her the whole world inside his mouth.she took pride in being his mother when others praised him for his deeds.she showed her false anger when she received complaints.ah! as if Krishna never knew all that!!he knew--he wanted to play pranks and make her life enjoyable-she deserved that:)
she could not control herself when demons came to attack her baby,after all,she loved him so much that she could never part with him and never be away from him.
she fed him,bathed him,played with him,sang lullaby to make him sleep,and did everything to her little Krishna,not knowing that he rules the world!!
she was undoubtedly lucky to have the lord as her son! she was bestowed with a beautiful treasure-a lovely motherhood!!for even the angels and devas envied her,seeing her attachment to sweet little Krishna! i call her-the divine mother!
what else can we ask her other than~~~என்ன தவம் செய்தனை ?!!

யாதுமாகி நின்றாய்!
கண்ட நாள் முதல்
கண்களில் குடி்புகுந்தாய்
கருவிழிகளில் கலந்திட்டாய்!
என்னில் உன்னைப்பார்க்கவோ?
உன்னில் என்னைப்பார்க்கவோ?
முதற்பார்வையில்-
முன்னிரவுத்தூக்கம் பறித்தாய்!
புன்சிரிப்பினில்-
பின்னிரவுத்தூக்கம் கெடுத்தாய்!
எனக்குள் நானே சிரிக்க வைத்தாய்!

கனவைக்கருவாய் நினைத்து வந்தேன்
கருவிலும் கலந்து என் கனவானாய்!
தொட்டால் சிணுங்கும் குணம்-அதையும்
உன் தீண்டல் சாம்பல் ஆக்கிடுதே!
தீண்டாவிடினும் தீண்டியதாய்
தறி கெட்ட நெஞ்சம் நினைத்திடுதே!
உயிர் கூறும் வார்த்தைகள் கேட்கிறேன்
உனையே உயிராய் நினைக்கிறேன்
உயிர் வரை உள் நோக்கித் தேடுகிறேன்
உனையன்றி எதுவும் தெரியவில்லை!
சிரிப்பால் சிந்தையால் சிறகு தந்தாய்-உன்
சொல்லால் செயலால் சிறை பிடித்தாய்
மீள வழியுண்டாம் மனச் சிறையினின்று
மீளவும் மனம் தான் இடம் தருமோ?
கண்ணும் கண்ணும் நோக்குகையில்
வாய்ச்சொல்லில் என்ன பயன்?
கண்ணும் கண்ணும் கலந்த பின்னே
காத்திருந்து என்ன பலன்?
கனவாய் நினைவாய்
கண்ணாய் மணியாய்
உடலாய் உயிராய்
மனமாய் மொழியாய்
இரவாய்ப் பகலாய்
இமையாய் விழியாய்
சரியாய்த் தவறாய்
வழியாய் வாழ்வாய்

I have changed!
This is what i ve been telling people for a long time now.it's really nice to get to see and talk to your old pals,whom you lost touch with.but it pains to hear,"you are much the same,not changed"... who said so?did i? no!!
i agree gracefully that ONCE UPON A TIME,LONG LONG AGO SO LONG AGO,i was this perfect nerdy gal(err....not exactly though) studying every minute i could and keeping the precious 1st rank with me.confident of the medals every time,super-confident about an "O" grade in every subject and over confident about a centum in maths(though i still wonder if I've ever got a centum:) but kindly understand that,as i mentioned,was LOOOOONNNNG ago!!! i am a different SINDHUJA altogether now---and mind u people better believe me!!
To those who are trying to compliment me with those quoted words,i've few questions for you!Have you ever seen or at least imagined a sindhuja,who is late to class,comes without finishing the assignments,barely does group copying with friends,hurries madly to the teacher to get the record signed at the last minute,sits for more than an hour in the tests thinking if the questions were there in the syllabus,bunks college for a movie with friends,bunks classes and sits in the hostel and yaps in the name of completing worksheets,searches for the syllabus sheet at 9:45 p.m. on the eve of tests,dances like no one is seeing in the bon-fire,sleep all day through,(hey i didn't include the nights...they are extended nights now a days!!)escapes the staring glances of HITLER LADY(oh she..!! i'll tell about her later!) while doing observation work under the desk,messages continuously during the maths class just to avoid being seen sleeping,writing and passing conversation bits of papers from on seat to another during machines class??(to all those who have not done that---it's an awesome way to kill time during class!!) now do u still call me NERDY?
SIGH!!!!!!!! i bet ur answer is no! and mind you--if only u say yes,u are deeply spoiling the respect i have for our friendship!!there are times when people change--so have i,in the past few years........some changes are for good,some for bad,but i'm not in a mood to classify my changes.i've just accepted them as they came,so i VERY STRONGLY expect u too to accept and agree with me!to all new friends who know about the recent me--never ever trust the words of others,including my old pals.they are truly the people whom i have great regards for and will continue to have--if only they perceive the changes in me!
with the kinda attitude i have towards life,i don't think i'll ever be back to square one,but just in case i do,i'll surely inform you--until then shut off the nerdy image that u have about me !
chillax sindhuja~~ geese take time to understand!

tears
My tears have a story!
each drop has a memory,
each falls with a silent tale,
behind those salty drops,
there lies a life..........
some tears are for friends,
some for fears,
some for ones who are dear,
some for joyful moments,
some for painful minutes,
some for lovely losses,
some for loss of love,
but behind those salty drops,
there lies a life................
they take the shape of a sphere,
to show me that they are here,
when i want to cry,
they show no wry,
but behind those salty drops
there lies a life................
smile and tear together,
are rarely seen ever
when they decide to come together,
they make the gorgeous moment ever!
but behind those salty drops
there lies a life..........
tears....they teach u a lot!
they bring out the REAL YOU!
they tell you
how you were,
how you are,
how you should be!
it may not be nice
to shed them in
front of wise
but
it's the purest form
of apologizing,
of sacrificing,
of thanking,
of remembering,
of forgiving......
behind those salty drops,
there lies a life.............
life is pretty hard with tears
but it's hardly a life,
without tears,for
behind those salty drops
there lies a LIFE...........
oh my honey pie!
how do i tell thee?
that you are the reason why,
few drops are ready to fall and dry,
and you are the reason....why??
life may be good without tears,
but never complete!
life may be better without tears,
but never brighter!
life may be happy without tears,
but there is never,
a cheer without a tear!
you may not know it though,
just remember it now,
behind those salty drops
THERE LIES A LIFE...........

MY VIOLIN CLASS!
i can assure u now itself that this piece WILL NOT BE much of an interesting read,unless
1.u belong to my violin class or,
2.u have all the time in the world or,
3.u take pity on this poor little gal for typing such a BIIIIIIIIIG blog!!
p.s.:-if not,there's always this 'x'(close button) at the top of ur screen,ur mouse can reach anytime:-)
now its time i guess to proudly talk about my violin class!what do i have 2 say about it? read on.....
if not already,at least now u get to know that I'm learning this beautiful,stylish instrument on earth~~VIOLIN! it's the loveliest of all that I've heard or seen-fine that's my point of view....i simply love every damn thing about it--starting from the name,the spelling,the style,the music--man created it in the best of his moods.i chose it outta some reason,god-knows-why but developed an ardent interest!lemme not delve into all that,its time introduce my violin class friends here...to start with,
ARAVIND anna:-
i mention his name 1st coz i thought he deserves it.his abnormal pace itself deserves a separate post.i need not worry that i'll go wrong while i play with him coz he'll manage and make the song pleasant to hear despite my presence along with him....i blink every minute looking at those swift finger movements trying to follow him,but lo! behold!there he goes playing on and on......not noticing his poor junior posing a blank face!! of course his "bhavam","rhythm" are developing on a major scale off late that he has taken this responsibility of a big-bro in the class teaching us few nuances while sir is away.....I've never seen him even talking a little louder also-i know it's quite a contrast to my way:):) he exhausts all possible-humanly-thinkable permutations of playing the notes that there is nothing we can do except look at him with awe!! i feel elated when sir reminds him--"aravind?! sindhuja laam iruka illa?paavam la ava?konjam speed koraichuko"he is such a dedicated student that my master can proudly tell--"i've only 1 student and he is aravind!"
GANAPATHI anna:-
If there's someone in the class who can make me get this feeling of satisfaction,it's none but ganapathi anna! he's this peaceful soul who can play at my pace or at least feels I'm so dumb and reminds me that he's there to save me! thanks anna! 1 major difference between him and me---that he plays slowly but with finest of all perfection,but i?.well.....i too play slowly...but then..huh..huh..when sir tells that he has improved a lot,despite his speed being low,i know what sir thinks in his mind --"sindhuja! avana paarthaavadhu kathuko!" but my sweet sir never tells it openly 2 me:) nice to enjoy OC drops in the auto! right anna?:):)
BHARATHI akka:-
what do u call people having beauty with brains?i would call them-BHARATHI! yup!she is this amazing digital damsel who knows 3 things in the world--FAMILY,MUSIC,HARD WORK--with family and music blended together in her blood that she'd give up anything( but family right?)for that! she has got a real gr8 potential,i can assure u that if tried,she can scale greater heights.......i still wonder sometimes why she stopped with an engineering degree.may be it's destined she should take up music in the long run for her career:) there are certain things you can never replace by anything else--for her those are music and family!! especially after her wedding she has become this "i am-there-always-at your service-bahu" to her in-laws,that she manages everything like a trapeze artist on the rope! i'm not against being bonded to the family but still...........whatever!
PRAKASH anna:-
i cant elaborate a lot on him,coz due 2 his busy work,he does not get the time to attend class that regularly,but still he manages to play the notes correctly with minor mistakes here and there..."till now",he has not upset me with his pace.....on the whole---gud anna!
JANANE!!!:- (sorry cant call her akka)
she is my best buddy in the class! has this fascinating passion for music....she annoys me every time she chooses to play "kanchadhalaaya dhaakshi", 1 among the many songs i can PROUDLY(???) accept that i play badly..........(oh! where r the superlative forms?:):))but she?---yo!she is damn amazing when it comes to this song particularly......she forgets the no. of times i've pleaded her not to choose this song,when promptly she'll remind sir about how long it's been since we played it! she is an aspiring violinist,C.A.(not much of a combination i know:)) supposed to be elder than me but then behaves so childishly that she can be oatified even by an auto man...:) the way she bargains for an auto is too cute u know--"iruvathanju(25)rooba dhan...chance ae illanga....adhuku mela laam thara mudiyaadhu...." she literally looks kiddish with the way she kenjifies the autowaala...lol..dont u dare think she is a chamathu gal.........i know the KD inside her!
she is so sweet,lovely friend,with a cute smile.guess what? sometimes i've bunked classes simply coz she wasn't coming!! she gets pissed off when ever there r vocal and "swarams" session.....both of which i enjoy!!! she has this musical family,especially her dad and uncle both of whom r music freaks(how else will u call those ,who make STD calls at mid-night to talk about a ragam-tanam-pallavi of lalgudi??:))
i've had innumerable discussions with her during those 5 mins breaks in the class....she is so benevolnt u know--she drops me ever other day.....(hey am calling her sweet,cute and everything which deserves dropping me an entire month without those chuckles of "bayama iruku di.....ingaye erangikaraya?") fondly called "akka" by sir,this female has huge talents still unexposed.......OH WORLD! wait a while!she is yet to come outta of herself!!!!
VANDANA:-
supposed to be my junior at school which she often forgets:):) she puts in lotsa effort( who can forget those 10 pages of notes that she prepared taking sir's words seriously!!!!!) guess her pass time in the class is to tease me! she is talented and good at night time chatting....(or shud i call it early morning?) 1 gr8 thing i shud learn frm her is her regularity to class!!! very sincere and a recent addition to my batch:)
SUKANYA:-
a chutti gal of my class whose "throat goes somewhere'" after attending vocal sessions.......gud at trying new cine songs.....especially kuththu songs(?) she uses the violin to play the guitar more than violin! often irritates sir.lol......has got a mom who looks no more than a few yrs than her!! (btw,shud i call her aunty or akka?) the proud violin--researcher-cum-lawyer of the future is busy writing her 11th std quarterly exams now:)
SHREYAS:-
another chutti kid of my class. i guess "WHAT IS UR NAME?" is the only question he'll answer you without consulting his mom!! such an obedient guy! good at grasping "swarams'" ....sir himself has told us how much talented he is....."neraya homework iruku......maths tuition poganum" guess this is the only thing he talks:) poor kid....gets scolded for silly reasons sometimes...i'am sure he'll scale gr8 heights thru his work to fulfill his (mom's) dreams!!!
p.s:-- i like his shirts a lot:)
Mr.SRINIVASA MURTHY:-
last but not the least---my guru!! THE DIRECT DISCIPLE OF THE GREAT VIOLIN MASTERO LALGUDI.G.JAYARAMAN!the most sincere person u can ever see!! he does not count the classes per month...he keeps as many as he can to seek perfection......he does not even move to the next song without perfecting the present!he is amazing and when he takes up the instrument in his hands,i dont even blink my eye 4 a min!!!! such a wonderful sir!
he is so so so so so sweet that he has managed to run the class successfully despite ME being there in the class which is an achievement by itself! he can drift through any topics ranging from cricket to his coll days to his child's prank to indo-pak fights to his guru's words to almost everything and promptly come back to where we left:):)he has such a tolerance and patience ,that he atleast tried to hide the irritation, i'm sure he does get when sees that i play the notes as wrong as anyone can,after teaching me the same for god-knows-how-many-times!!!! "sindhuja---innoru dhadava vaasi?...aan...ipdi dhan vaasikanum,munnaadi vaasichadhu thappu..puriyardha?doubts irundha kelu" are the only words that come from his mouth!
cheers to this dedicated teacher without whom i would not have even dreamt of music!!! hats off!!!
********:-
hmmm...wait till i tell her name...she is a lovely chamathu gal of the violin class who
1.never touches the violin at home.
2.comes sharp in time at 7:15 pm for a 6:45 pm class.
3.is never scolded by sir(touchwood!)
4.talks the maximum with friends in the class that aravind anna has to remind her everytime that it was high time she shuts her mouth and stretches her hands hands to open the violin box.
5.slightly "okay" at grasping "swarams" but never makes use of it.
6.loves to compete with aravind anna's and janane's pace and ends up in a mess.
7.gets comfortably dropped by someone at most of the times
8.despite all this continues to go to class for the sheer passion 4 music!!
9.thinks u r really dumb if u cant figure out that those "*"marks at the start stand for "SINDHUJA":-)
1.u belong to my violin class or,
2.u have all the time in the world or,
3.u take pity on this poor little gal for typing such a BIIIIIIIIIG blog!!

supposed to be my junior at school which she often forgets:):) she puts in lotsa effort( who can forget those 10 pages of notes that she prepared taking sir's words seriously!!!!!) guess her pass time in the class is to tease me! she is talented and good at night time chatting....(or shud i call it early morning?) 1 gr8 thing i shud learn frm her is her regularity to class!!! very sincere and a recent addition to my batch:)
SUKANYA:-
a chutti gal of my class whose "throat goes somewhere'" after attending vocal sessions.......gud at trying new cine songs.....especially kuththu songs(?) she uses the violin to play the guitar more than violin! often irritates sir.lol......has got a mom who looks no more than a few yrs than her!! (btw,shud i call her aunty or akka?) the proud violin--researcher-cum-lawyer of the future is busy writing her 11th std quarterly exams now:)
SHREYAS:-
another chutti kid of my class. i guess "WHAT IS UR NAME?" is the only question he'll answer you without consulting his mom!! such an obedient guy! good at grasping "swarams'" ....sir himself has told us how much talented he is....."neraya homework iruku......maths tuition poganum" guess this is the only thing he talks:) poor kid....gets scolded for silly reasons sometimes...i'am sure he'll scale gr8 heights thru his work to fulfill his (mom's) dreams!!!
p.s:-- i like his shirts a lot:)
Mr.SRINIVASA MURTHY:-
last but not the least---my guru!! THE DIRECT DISCIPLE OF THE GREAT VIOLIN MASTERO LALGUDI.G.JAYARAMAN!the most sincere person u can ever see!! he does not count the classes per month...he keeps as many as he can to seek perfection......he does not even move to the next song without perfecting the present!he is amazing and when he takes up the instrument in his hands,i dont even blink my eye 4 a min!!!! such a wonderful sir!
he is so so so so so sweet that he has managed to run the class successfully despite ME being there in the class which is an achievement by itself! he can drift through any topics ranging from cricket to his coll days to his child's prank to indo-pak fights to his guru's words to almost everything and promptly come back to where we left:):)he has such a tolerance and patience ,that he atleast tried to hide the irritation, i'm sure he does get when sees that i play the notes as wrong as anyone can,after teaching me the same for god-knows-how-many-times!!!! "sindhuja---innoru dhadava vaasi?...aan...ipdi dhan vaasikanum,munnaadi vaasichadhu thappu..puriyardha?doubts irundha kelu" are the only words that come from his mouth!
cheers to this dedicated teacher without whom i would not have even dreamt of music!!! hats off!!!
********:-
hmmm...wait till i tell her name...she is a lovely chamathu gal of the violin class who
1.never touches the violin at home.
2.comes sharp in time at 7:15 pm for a 6:45 pm class.
3.is never scolded by sir(touchwood!)
4.talks the maximum with friends in the class that aravind anna has to remind her everytime that it was high time she shuts her mouth and stretches her hands hands to open the violin box.
5.slightly "okay" at grasping "swarams" but never makes use of it.
6.loves to compete with aravind anna's and janane's pace and ends up in a mess.
7.gets comfortably dropped by someone at most of the times
8.despite all this continues to go to class for the sheer passion 4 music!!
9.thinks u r really dumb if u cant figure out that those "*"marks at the start stand for "SINDHUJA":-)

DEBTS OF LOVE........
The last day when we talked
we were silent
as it was planned that
we will never talk
but still your voice
and those few words
I can hear.
Though we didn't
Though we didn't
want to part away.
we had to do that way..
for families'
harmony and happiness.
Still we keep wondering
why there was ego clash
why few old ones
don't understand
they have lived their lives
and they should not
part our ways.
we didn't oppose
and just did support,
agree with them
and killed ourselves.
our joys and warmth
just drifted away
today we aren't happy
and aren't living our dreams
we are still paying the debts
of we loving each other that way.
