Topic started by Udhaya (@ 205.218.142.217) on Thu Aug 20 21:25:09 EDT 1998.
All times in EST +10:30 for IST.
For a good understanding of how to approach this ongoing symposium, please refer to the thread, "Kannadhaasan
Vs. Vairamuthu TFM Symposium Topic 1:Iyarkai Varnanai" before you post. Let me reiterate that this is not a patti mandram, but a research symposium.
Please show TFM examples of both poets with regards to just their Vingyaana/Naveena Karuthoottum Paadalgal for this thread.
Please provide the name of the song whose lines you excerpt and the name of the movie if known. Here are the symposium categories, the bold topics are yet to be discussed:
1)Iyarkai Varnanai
2)Kaadhal Paadalgal
3)Thaththuva Paadalgal
4)Vaarthai Prayoagam
5)Nagaichchuvai Paadalgal
6)Samudhaaya Seerthirutha / Puratchi Paadalgal
7)Vingyaana/Naveena Karuthoottum Paadalgal
8)Ilakkiya Moolam Ulla Paadalgal
9)Kadhaikku Porundhiya Paadalgal(situational songs)
10)Kavidhai Milekarkal (Poetic Milestones that the poets will be remembered by!)

Only four more, guys, after that I swear I won't start a Hanumaar Vaal symposium like this. Ayyo, thaniya polambaraenae, thaniyaa polambaraenae. Ayya Sathiya Keerthi, SATHIYA KEERTHI. Avar illai, vara maattar. . .
Sari, thozhilukkr varalaam. For a change I'll open the bank with a Kannadhaasan song. Kannadhaasan beatifully connects his commentary on the human mind and human nature while listing the history of some modern inventions. A marvelous number.

Uhaya:
Neenga Intha Kelviyee ketta Vendia thillai? Listen most of the new songs such as Nilave Vaa, Kathal Mannan etc. VM has done outstanding job on putting Naveena(???) Karuthootum Paadalgal Niraiya Ezhuthi Ullar.

Since, Kanchana is busy I'm doing more cut and paste service to her Scientific explanation. Amar's posting is also excerpted below from an old discussion. I have, again, edited these for brevity.

Song: Poo kodiyin Punnagai; Film: IRuvar
neela niRam izhandhu vittAl
vAnil oru koorai illai
sooriyanai izhandhu vittAl
kizhakkukkoru thilagam illai
nee oru muRai thirumbik koNdAl
en uyirukku uRudhi illai
I'm sure the meaning is clear to you now. My interpretation of the analogy of the blue sky bit:
We all know the blue color of the sky during daytime (and the reds during sunrise/sunsets) is caused by Rayleigh's Scattering phenomenon. But that blue color gives a perception of finiteness to the reality of an infinite Universe beyond our thin atmosphere. So, the heroine is saying the hero offers her what the sky's color offers to the blue planet's inhabitants--emotional security.
If you have a different interpretation, that's welcome as always.
From: Amar (@ worf.qntm.com) on: Wed Jan 21 11:35:22 EST 1998
Kanchana:
I think your explanation is correct because I was thinking along the same lines.
Neelam yenrillai, entha coloril vaanam irunthirunthaalum, athu namakku meiley Vaanam oru closing lid maathiri, oru koorai poala iruppathaagal nammai yenna vaikkirathu. Like you aptly said, "giving a finiteness to the infinite Universe". Appadi yentha colorum illaamal, vaanam transparentaaga irunthirunthaal, namaukku meiley oru closed "something" iruppathaaga nammaal ninaikkamudiyaathu.
So, Vaanam "neela" niramaaga iruppathaalum, antha "neelaniram" vaanam oru koorai poala iruppathaaga oru perception namakku koduppathaalum, antha "neelaniram" poivittaal, Vaanam transparent aagividhum, namakku "koorai"yum marainthuvidhum yenbathai, Vairamuthu azhagaaga:
neela niRam izhandhu vittAl,
vAnil oru koorai illai
yenru ezhuthiyullaar.

I remember the ever-green "PonMalai Pozhuthu" from the movie Nizhalgal. Vairamuthu has elgently narrated the beauty of sunset.
"Pon Malai Pozhuthu"
"Idhu Oru Pon Malai Pozhuthu"
"Vana magal, Nanugiral. Veru Udai Poonugiral"
"Idhu Oru Pon Malai Pozhuthu"
"Ayiram Nirangal Jalamidum"
"Rathiri Vasalili Olamidum"
"Vaanam Nilavukku Palamidum"
"Padum Paravigal Thalamidum"
"Poomarangal, Samarangal Veesatho.."

Sorry Udaya
I posted a more general song of Variamuthu.
Sorry again.
Here is a Song "Pa..." (I don't remember the movie name)
"Kodi Asainthaum Katru Vandhatha..? Katru Vandathm Kodi Asainthatha ?
"Nilavu Vandadum Malar Malarthadha ? Malar Malarnthadhum Nilavu Vandadha"
"Ragam Vandhadum Thalam Vandhatha ? Thalam Vandhadum Ragam Vandhatha"

Vasudevan, it's okay-pa, you must be new to the DF, welcome. Make sure you check out the abbreviations section to brief yourself and enter your intro in the Intro page. "Kodi asaindhadhum" is very appropriate for this thread. It questions nature's interdependance, its origin in a very poetic manner.

Udhaya--FYI:
For the next topic "ilakkiya moolam uLLa pAdalgaL", it may be easier if you can just include the URL for "Bringing ilakkiyam to pAmaran" thread in your intro. It is a complete research thread we invested time into, includes only Kannadhasan and VM, doesn't need us to cut & paste like we did in the "samudhAyam" thread. We can just add to what already exists in that thread.

Kanchana, it's scary you mention that, because I had the very same idea for the next thread. Consider it done. Pagalavan, Prakash, I envy both your memory.
