Artistic welcome to 2010



How talented our devotees are. Not so long ago, when Shri.Arunji was performing at Melkote in Karnataka, we witnessed a very talented artist giving expression through his brush to the hymns being sung.


On 31st December 2009 we saw a team of women artists giving expression to the spirit of Thean Amudham bhajans with flowers. The stunning Pookkalam which resulted at the end of their 90 minutes of dedicated work was the cynosure of all eyes. Pookalam is an intricate and colorful arrangement of flowers laid on the floor. 'Poov' represents a flower and ‘kalam’ refers to the colorful sketches on the ground. Several kilos of flowers, dedication, creativity, and technique go into this team effort to make an eye catching design. Although it is a back breaking job, such expression of beauty indeed paves the way for a joyful team work, a feeling of togetherness. Kudos to Mr and Mrs.Suresh Kumar for their colourful New Year eve gesture.


The ceremony gave a joyful start to the AMC at Coutrallam. The venue gave a wonderful vista of the Agastya Hills and witnessed a record turn out of participants some of whom had their kids attending a simultaneously held Special Art Excel. They were truly grateful for the opportunity provided by the Tenkasi Centre. The kids enacted a spontaneous skit with the knowledge gained from Teachers Sharada and Gomathi much to the delight of everyone.
