^^^^ :blink::blink::blink: This thread has some real gems...but this one would give hongwu's posts a run for their money! :woot:

Is HongWu for real? :D

This is a most plausible explanation...and probably the main reason why Shaivite Hinduism came to be the only school of Hinduism found in the island.

On second thoughts I have to retract a couple of names from my list...I believe I am mistaken in including the names Rajakulendran and Edhirveerasingham as names used by Jaffna Brahmins. Apart from only two people I know of..I do not recall any other Jaffna Brahmins having those names. Therefore...

I learned something new today.I didnt know that Sri was a trademark of Iyers. As a Tamil from Lanka sometimes I get confused by the naming conventions followed in South India. Jaffna(yazhpana) Vellalas and Lankan Brahmins cannot be differentiated based on names. Its common for a Jaffna Vellala...

I apologize for butting in, but I have to say that I agree with your take on the origin of Tamil Brahmins. There might be a few who arrived during the time of Malik Kafur; but the vast majority have been in TN for as far as literary records go. There is ample evidence from the sangam era...

Lol, seems like you were the only other person who noticed how the numbers were wildly inflated; apart from me :P ~2500 F35s! :rofl:

Which alternate universe do you live in? pray tell.

Its no wonder that Netaji Subash Chandra Bose split from the congress pre-independence when he saw the way the party was being run.He was the president of the congress party...had everything he wanted..yet threw it all away, including his own life; fighting for something he truly believed...

I based my reply on his track record of posts rather than merely on this one. I would have definitely arrive at the conclusion you did if not for his previous posts such as these http://www.defence.pk/forums/world-affairs/84798-chinese-premier-wen-jiabaos-visit-india-29.html#post1346218 There...

:woot: you sir are an asset to this forum! :woot:

I's Hilarious that someone claims India backstabbed Lanka Lets look at what the current president of Lanka, Rajapakse said about India (on International TV no less!) when he was interviewed in the 80s...and he supported the JVP an virulently anti India force. YouTube - War Criminal...

What did he hate about it? I am genuinely curious

Thanks for the info, but the only reason I even stopped using dedicated Indian language transliteration software(which I had installed on my computer) was that except for extremely rare cases, Google transliterate allows me to do the same thing without the need to install anything. It was...

double post

:tup: man that reminds me of the time when I had one of those.lol Nowadays I use the Google Indic transliterator to type in Tamil/Indian languages. Its so convenient. Type in Hindi - Google Transliteration

You need to brush up on your history. The very fact that English is a foreign language; made it a perfect choice as a link language between Indians. Because it is a foreign language, no Indian would give up their own languages for the sake of English...they might have if it was some other Indian...

This guy seems to be a total sellout. Bad mouthing his own country(i could understand if it was factual..but his statement was not)...ballooning some almost non-existent threat and even claiming that it might surpass the terrorism India faces now? Either he is lying outright to earn some...

I'm sorry..can you please enlighten me about this "language of India". What was it? pray tell.:blink: The last time I checked, India did not have a "language of India"..but has "languages" of India. The only reason English is being used is due to the singular fact that choosing any other Indian...

Just to point out....Any plan that relies on the enemy making mistakes is not a plan at all :)
